A lot of harm...

And a lot of good.

Recycle Plastic Bottle Caps

Share the Planet

We accept clean plastic bottle caps for recycling.  Plastic can be shipped to our office or dropped-off during regular business hours.

Please rinse or clean well enough to remove any remaining ‘product’ from the caps. Our facility does not have a wash-line for cleaning caps. Please remove foil, foam, or paper liners.
(Note: Most caps are not marked with the #5. We can recycle all caps that meet these criteria)

• Caps from threaded neck bottles (soda, water, juice, shampoo, detergent, aspirin, etc.)
• Plastic Jar Lids (peanut butter, pickles, mayo, etc.)
• Flip caps from tubes, personal care products & food product bottles (condiments, etc.)
• Flexible snap-on lids (butter tub lids, yogurt cup lids, etc.)

Caps NOT accepted:

• Please no caps with foil, foam or paper liners (unless liners are removed);
  glue residue & flexible plastic liners are OK
• Please no dirty caps encrusted with food particles or foreign materials
• Please no metal lids or caps with metal inserts (nothing metal at all)
• Please no plastic pumps or sprayers (they normally have a metal spring in the mechanism or contain more than one type of plastic)
• Please no caps or lids that break when bent (possibly indicates polystyrene PS #6 or other brittle plastic that would contaminate the entire batch)
