Can I Throw This Away?

Clean glass bottles are widely recyclable. Rinse them out and remove any caps or lids before recycling. Colored glass is typically recycled separately from clear glass.

Lithium batteries are hazardous waste and must be taken to a specialized recycling center. Never throw them in regular trash as they can cause fires.

Greasy cardboard isn't recyclable in most places. Tear off clean parts and compost or trash the rest.

Plastic bags should not be placed in curbside recycling bins as they can jam recycling equipment. Many grocery stores have collection bins for plastic bag recycling.

You should not throw away a vape in the regular trash. Vapes, especially disposable ones, contain hazardous materials like lithium batteries and nicotine, which can pose environmental and fire risks if not handled properly. Instead, you should dispose of them through designated hazardous waste collection programs or recycling centers
