What is included in the recovered material collection?
Each year the Department of Health provides a list of materials that must be included in recovered material collection. For 2007 those materials include: aluminum cans, foil and trays; aseptic/gable top containers (juice boxes, milk cartons); cardboard and chip board (cereal, pasta boxes, etc); paper (mail, newspapers, magazines, school and office paper, brown paper bags, phone books); all plastic containers except #6; steel/tin cans; glass bottles and jars.
