Precious’ Rules for Recycling Metal
Check the rules for what recyclables are accepted in your local program.
Rinse and empty before recycling.
Cans and lids are usually accepted.
Labels can be left on.
Wire hangers are not recyclable.
Metal wire hangers, scrap metal and construction materials like nails and screws are not accepted in most curbside recycling programs. These materials can typically be recycled at local participating scrap metal yards or drop-off recycling programs.
Medical sharps (sharp medical instruments) such as needles, syringes and lancets are dangerous to recycling facility staff and should never be recycled through traditional curbside or drop-off recycling programs.
What Precious Metale is listening to
Life isn’t always about recycling. It’s about life – hanging out with your raccoon friends, napping in attic spaces, rummaging through dumpsters, engaging in nocturnal capers and, of course, obsessing about recycling. But no matter how you live your life, you need cool music to go with it.
