The Internet Consumer Recycling Guide

This recycling guide provides a starting point for consumers in the USA and Canada searching the net for recycling information. The information is for regular folks with regular household quantities of materials to recycle. The goal is to help make recycling so easy and automatic that it blends into the flow of everyday life. We hope these resources are of use to you:

Guides:

• The World's Shortest Comprehensive Recycling Guide - Simple, basic, general.

Recycling and identity theft If it has your account numbers or other sensitive information on it, take care when recycling... somebody may be watching. If you tear paper, we recommend putting each half in a different bin (or composting half, recycling the other half). For larger quantities professional shredding is avaialble. For a list of low cost shredding events see http://www.shred-day.com/ or inquire at your Fire Department's non-emergency office.
