Correct, it's false.
All containers need to be empty, clean, and dry before going into your recycle cart. Empty liquids and reattach the cap before placing it in the recycling cart.
Food and liquids left inside containers can soil paper and cardboard when they get crushed together in the back of the truck, rendering the paper non-recyclable.
TIP: Leftover water can be used to water plants or fill a pet’s water bowl.
