Can I recycle milk/juice cartons, juice boxes/pouches and other aseptic containers?
A. No. All of these containers are made by fusing together layers of different materials. Milk and juice boxes are made from plastic coated paper. Aseptic containers (e.g., some soy milk, soup and broth come in these containers) are made of plastic, paper and metal fused together. Once these materials are layered and fused together it is virtually impossible to recycle them.
