    Anyone Know A Lot About Recycling?

    Sitting here going through my junk mail. Does anyone know what types of junk mail you can or can't recycle?

    1. Does it matter if it is colored or not?
    2. Envelopes?
    3. Do you need to remove staples?
    4. What about the sticky stuff that is used to attach the fake credit cards to the letters? Does that have to be removed?
    5. Does the type of paper matter? Glossy/non-glossy?

    None of the issues you mentioned have ever mattered on any of the recycling I have done. Any paper is OK, staples are OK, but I would remove the fake credit cards and dispose of them separately

    I would say throw it in your recycle bin and you've done your part. Those recycling companies do the work and sift thru it for their machines anyway.
