In an effort to improve recycling, the city of Lynn, Mass., is teaming with The Recycling Partnership to sort through residents’ recycling bins to determine if they are properly recycling. If the bins are filled with nonrecyclable materials, the duo will tag the bin to inform the resident of the problem.
The city hopes that this effort will help to better educate residents on what can and cannot be placed in their recycling bin, reducing contamination and improving recycling.
