Seattle, You're A Darn Good Recycler

If there is one thing you should never say in our dear city, it is "recycling is a hassle." (Gasp!) Without a doubt, muttering those words will earn you hundreds of dirty looks--we're passive-aggressive too, don't forget.

By now all Seattle Public Utilities customers (so, everyone) should have received a brochure outlining the new recycling and compost guidelines, which go into effect today. Meat scraps, fish, dairy, shells and bones are now allowed in your food and yard waste bin. Plastic lids and foil are finally recyclable, too. For a full list of changes, see the Seattle Public Utilities website. We're especially glad for the new composting guidelines, which have been too long coming.
