What is considered mixed paper that I can recycle in my box?
White paper, Colored paper, Newspaper, Junk mail, Telephone books, Pasteboard (i.e., cereal boxes), Hardcover books, Catalogs, and Magazines are all considered recyclable paper. Hardcover books must separated and bagged before disposal. The only exceptions are any type of cover or insert that is vinyl coated or wax coated. If you can not tear it, it is not paper!!! Staples in the paper are ok, but do not leave paper clips, jumbo clips, or the like on the paper. Spiral notebooks can be discarded as well as long as the metal spiral has been removed. Posters with ink and magic marker are fine to recycle, but poster with paint, glitter, Styrofoam, and crayon are NOT recyclable.
