The wild turkeys are out for spring, and they want you 🫵 to put your stuff in the right bin. 

♻️Make sure your recyclables actually get recycled (AKA, don't toss them as trash). On the go? Look for a public recycling bin or hang onto your stuff until you get home.

⏸️On the flip side, ""wishcycling"" is NOT the answer. Pause and make sure what you've got is accepted for recycling. (It only takes a few seconds to check the Recyclopedia!)

Turkey-approved, smart recycling has never been easier: Check RecycleSmartMA.org for fast, on-the-go answers on what to recycle.

It’s a-boat that time of year again! ⛵ Boat shrink wrap can’t go in your curbside recycling bin, but it can be recycled at designated drop-off locations. Thanks for the tips, @whoiseagrant and @barnstablecounty! If you're on the Cape, drop-offs are available through July 31:

We won't leaf you hanging: Flower pots and trays (aka flats) do NOT go in the recycling. Some garden centers may take them back, but you'll need to ask before you donate. Splitting plants? 🌱 Be sure to disinfect all pots and trays you give away to make sure you don't pass along any invasives (like jumping worms and black swallow wort). 

Take the guesswork out of recycling: Check RecycleSmartMA.org to see what goes in (and stays out of) your bin.
