Woops, it's true.
Items need to be empty, clean and dry before going into your recycle cart.
Please ensure there is no moldable food left in the containers – a good swish of water or scrape of the spatula will do. Or use a napkin to wipe out the remaining residue (and put that napkin in your food and yard waste 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.
