Latest Recycling Info From The City

For your convenience, here are links with the latex, greatest recycle info:

Curbside recycling: http://www.philadelphiastreets.com/recycling/how-to-recycle/

New Curbside recycling (Recycle by City): http://recyclebycity.com/philadelphia

Philly Recycling Rewards (by Recyclebank): http://www.philadelphiastreets.com/recycling-rewards

The City's recyclables processor, ReCommunity, has some outstanding information on their website, including a virtual tour of a materials recovery facility (MRF).  You may notice a couple of slight variations between the City's official acceptable materials list and ReCommunity's, but keep in mind their literature and guides represent their standard menu of acceptable items, whereas our list is what we've negotiated with them. Also, please note that our advertising (for example, transit ads and web banners) represent the more abbreviated versions of the acceptable materials lists. More static platforms will have the more comprehensive list.  Link to their MRF virtual tour is here:
