Keep Austin Perty

Apropos of nothing, really, other than that we drove past this sign on E. Cesar Chavez, here are some reminders about what you can recyle in Austin:

- Newspapers, magazines, catalogs, junk mail & office paper
- Aluminum, steel & tin cans
- Glass bottles and jars, all colors
- Plastic bottles (#1 and #2) -- no other shaped plastic containers than bottles
- Corrugated cardboard

Pick up a recycling bin from any City of Austin Fire Station. And, also handy, are drop sites for batteries, computers, hazardous waste (including many common household cleaners), and other things that don't belong in landfills. Enjoy.
