Where Can I Recycle Wednesday… Yogurt Containers?

Philadelphians often get confused with food containers. Did you know the majority of food-container plastics can be recycled?

Yogurt containers, plastic containers & juice bottles can ALL go in your single-stream recycle bin.  Just make sure to rinse & remove the food remnants (I use leftover dishwater or stick in happily with a pan trying to soak..)

Keep on recycling!
