ECOMAINE COVID 19 RECYCLING TIP

Toilet paper, tissues, and paper towels have never been in more demand. That means your recyclable paper and cardboard are in demand, too, since they’re recycled into those paper goods.

But once you’re done with your tissues, they should go into the trash (or compost, depending on what they’re cleaning up…) They can’t be recycled.

FMI on what is/isn’t recyclable, check out our Recyclopedia at ecomaine.org/101.
