Recycling can be confusing. So, last week we had an informal Waste & Recycling Q&A on Instagram. We got some great questions and wanted to share them here on the blog!
Our residential contamination rate is sitting around 17% which is much better than average. There are some municipalities around the country that have a contamination rate around 40% so we’re doing really well. But we’d like to get our contamination rate around 10% or lower in the new year. We need your help!
Have more questions? Let us know! Feel free to send us a message on social media, email slcgreen@slcgov.com or call (801) 535-6470. You can also learn more about specialty recycling programs and resources here.
Here are some of your questions! (View on Instagram here.)
