Plant pots (flimsy plastic)

Flimsy plastic nursery plant pots and trays are not recyclable and are not accepted in curbside recycling carts or at the Drop-Off Station or Recovery Yard. They are accepted for safe disposal at the Drop-Off Station as general waste.

Recycle Right!

Do not put nursery plant pots in your curbside recycling cart. This type of plastic will contaminate other recyclables.

Choose Zero Waste!

Save and reuse nursery plant pots as seed starters or return them to your local nursery for reuse.
