I hope that this provides the definitive answer about why some things
cannot be recycled.<br>
<br>
I can buy smaller containers of cat litter in cardboard boxes, but the
cost at Giant would be about 50% higher per pound of cat litter. And I
do not need containers for water or for storing dry goods; when I do
need such a container, then I will have use for an occasional
container, but most containers unfortunately will find their way to
landfills.<br>
<br>
Let us hope that eventually, containers with a "2" that can be recycled
will be used for cat litter.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Just to add
and to provide more info. To
keep confusion down, we do not post all of this detail on the webpage,
but I
will try to clarify for those who send e-mails or calls but here is the
deal…<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Many people
ask for clarification about
recycling plastic items. The curbside and drop-off programs accept
narrow-necked and screw top plastic bottles labeled with numbers 1
through 7
ONLY. 1’s and 2’s includes many soda and water bottles, milk
and juice jugs, and household cleaner bottles. 3’s –
7’s include items like olive oil, jelly and ketchup bottles. In an
attempt to be more environmentally friendly, many plastics bottles that
used to
be made of the 3 – 7 are now being made of the 1 and 2 plastic; e.g.
detergent and cleaner bottles. Plastics with other numbers or 1
through 7
plastics that are not bottles (like margarine tubs and yogurt
containers) are
not recyclable in this program. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Not to make
things even more confusing,
but to give some industry terminology, a yogurt container and plastic
bottle
both have a 2 on the bottom and yes, it is the same <i><span
style="font-style: italic;">family</span></i> of plastics. But the
two forms have been
slightly modified to achieve different properties for strength,
fluidity, crack
resistance, etc. Even when the plastic number is the
same, the manufacturing processes to create those qualities make
the two containers incompatible. Some plastic containers, such as milk
jugs and laundry detergent bottles, are made in a process called
blow-molding. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Other
plastic containers, such as
margarine tubs and sour cream containers are made in a process called
injection-molding. When resins produced by different
processes are mixed together, <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">the
resulting product is no longer
appropriate for use in either manufacturing process. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Plastics
with a number 1 or 2 on the
bottom make up 70 percent of the market of plastic bottles and are
increasing
every day. The strength of this demand makes collection possible.

<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span

manufacturer demand; the materials would sit in a warehouse. The
manufacturing
aspect of the "cycle" is just as important as the collection
part. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

whether the buckets that
cat litter comes in can be recycled. Apparently, the answer is NO.
Personally, I can see no reason that only bottles and jars can be
recycled, but
obviously my cat litter buckets will be added to what goes into the
landfills.<br>
