“We're learning,’ 100," she
said. “Inthe goodness of. our
hearts we decided ‘io: take milk .
eartons and then: we gat eB car-
tons, too,” -

Now, the ‘only: ‘containers ‘the
depot takes are plastic milk jugs
and ice cream: cartons. Other
containers, like yogurt cups;.are
made .from ‘a..different, ton-: -
recyclable - ‘plastic’ and «often
have metal lids, which con-
taminate‘a whole load:

Schooner also: asks that ‘all
cans and: bottles: ‘be washed ~
clean and “all ‘labels removed
before being dropped off, Food
and. paper, are contaminants,
and many loads have been turn-
ed back because of them. ~

“One morning I couldn’t
believe” it : ‘there’ was’ a
beautiful: “full. ‘Bag of <clean,.
squashed ‘cans,. and then. (the
donators)-had put beer cans on
top and-they-hadn’t .washed
them, and that contaminaed the -
whole lot,”’

Schooner. and the other
organizers, Scott Schooner and
Randy Grelson, are pleased
with this city’s response, and: -
say that just as they are learning
to run a recycling depot, people
are learning how to prepare ar-
ticles for recycling.
