Can you please give me a list of what to recycle.?
Answer:
Bravo! Good for you.
It depends what community/city/village you live in. Most now have recycling, whether curbside pickup or u-haul to a center.
Everyone takes aluminum (such as pop cans) and steel (such as soup, beans, etc.) cans. Office paper and cardboard--clean, not greasy or dirty like pizza boxes--are usually taken. Plastics are another thing. Look on the bottom of the item. It should have a recycle symbol, with a number inside it, from 1 to 6 or 7, 1 being the most recyclable.. You should call your local city hall and ask up to which number they'll accept plastics--not all places take past 3, though some take it all.
Hazardous materials like batteries, paint thinners, aerosol cans are usually taken by an independent recycler at certain times of the year--your community paper or bulletin board should be able to tell you where and when.
Happy recycling!!

every municipality collects different things ~ as an example, some areas collect only 1-2 plastics while others will collect 1-7. You can call your trash collection agency or the public works department of your city, and they can mail you the list of what can be recycled in your area.
In addition to what everyone else has listed, there's also
cardboard, rebond foam carpet pad, motor oil, scrap metal of all types, and copper. Dry cleaners will recycle dry cleaning bags and metal hangers; grocery stores will take grocery & produce bags. If you live in S Cal or the NYC/NJ areas, there's a few places that will even recycle certain types of carpeting.
