Amarillo, Tx. recently included all plastics for recycling. Previously, it had only been 1-4.

What are you able to recycle in your community? :unsure:
If it's not enough, have to contacted local officials to include more materials?

Almost everything recyclable.
Domestically, paper, plastics, metal, cardboard, fabric....etc
Glass we take to a bottle bank.

We get groceries delivered and the driver takes back the previous plastic carrier bags for recycling.

At work, we have bins in pairs throughout the offices. - one for general waste the other for anything that can be recycled.
We also have to have waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) collected by an authorised contractor for recycling/disposal. This a mandatory requirement under the WEEE directive.
