As of November 1st, the MassDEP will require all mattresses and box springs to no longer be disposed of as trash. Mattresses hold a lot of potential material that could be used to make new products. Over 75% of mattress and box spring components can be disassembled and recycled.

It’s estimated that at least 10 million new plastic can carriers are used annually by breweries in #Massachusetts, with just 10% of them being collected and re-used, and less than 2% of them ever getting recycled.

As we strive to make the @CityOfBoston a #ZeroWasteCity, always remember to #RecycleRight. Please leave #plasticbags and tanglers (see string lights below) out of the #Recyclingbin. These items can jam machines at the processing facility and cause damage and delays. #ZeroWaste
