What You Need to Know About Sa Recycling
Savannah’s commitment to sustainability shines through its robust recycling program, and Sa Recycling is the heart of it all. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about how to recycle right in your home and community.
**## Understanding Sa Recycling: The Basics
Before we dive into the specifics, let’s get a quick overview. Sa Recycling is more than just tossing things in a bin. It’s about understanding what can be recycled, why, and how to do so effectively.
The program often hinges on separating recyclables into different categories – paper, plastic, glass, metal, and hazardous waste.
**## Paper: Your Recyclable Ally
Paper is one of the easiest items to recycle. Newspapers, magazines, cardboard boxes, envelopes – all fall into this category. Just remember:
- Keep it Clean:** Before you toss in your paper, make sure to remove any food residue or labels that might interfere with recycling.
- Flatten It:** When it comes to cardboard boxes, flattening them can save space during collection and increase efficiency for sorting.
**## Plastic: A Mixed Bag
Plastic recycling can be a little trickier because of the vast variety of types. Some plastics are recyclable, but not all. Check these guidelines:
- Containers with numbers:** Look for a number inside the triangle symbol on packaging. Numbers one through seven are commonly accepted in most recycling programs.
**## Glass: A Clear Choice
Glass is another recyclable material that often requires a specific sorting process. Here’s how to make it easy:
- Rinse it Out:** Before you put glass in the recycling bin, rinse out any food residue or liquid.
- Be Careful with Color:** Glass bottles and jars should be placed in the recycling bin while they’re clean.
**## Metal: The Steel-Strong Recycler
Metal is one of the most valuable recyclables, making it a key player in the Sa Recycling program. Here are some important points to remember:
- Separating metal:** Aluminum cans, steel food cans, and tin foil must be collected separately from other materials.
- Be mindful of light-colored metals: **Aluminum and steel products are easy to recycle.
**## Hazardous Waste: The Unsung Heroes
Hazardous waste can include things like paint, batteries, and other materials that pose a threat to the environment if they’re not properly disposed of.
Here are some key points for dealing with hazardous waste:
