Smith County Buy Recycled
Remember to "Close the Loop"
when you shop by Buying Recycled!
Here
are a few examples of things you can buy made with recycled materials:
- Paper products such as writing paper, greeting cards, legal pads, notebook
paper, facial tissue, paper towels & more
- Some plastic trash bags are made from recycled plastic
- You can even buy items made with 'plastic lumber' manufactured from
recycled plastic
- Products sold in aluminum, glass and steel containers often contain
recycled material and are easily recycled
- Note: whenever possible buy products with "post consumer"
recycled content.
- Remember the difference between 'recycled' and 'recyclable'. 'Recyclable'
by itself does not mean the item is made from recycled material; it just
means the product can be recycled (if your community accepts that material
for recycling).
