I went into the basement of my apartment building yesterday to do a couple of loads of laundry. There is a big trash can next to the laundry machines/sinks and it was full of empty laundry detergent plastic containers. I dug in and gathered up the containers, looked on the bottom, and found that ALL of them were recycleable! I hauled them out to the recycle bin in our parking lot. Please look on all plastic containers before you throw anything out. You are going to find that more often than not that you can recycle it. I put a sign by the trash can to ask people to check the container first to see if it is recycleable before tossing it. If you live in an apartment or do laundry in a community laundry room please do the same. If you find there there are still people that don’t want to recycle, show a little love and recycle it for them.
