[GreenYes] Recyclable Plastic Cups

["Craig Barry" <craig@no.address>]

In our central Idaho community, we recycle on #1 and #2 plastic bottles
only (no tubs or cups).  Yet we also have a lot of special events where
plastic cups are used but cannot be recycled.

 

I understand the cups are not accepted in these plastic bottle recycling
streams because of their manufacturing process (ie injection molding).

 

Does anyone know of a plastic beverage cup (beer and/or wine) that is
manufactured in a manner that can be accepted in this plastic bottle
recycling stream?

 

TIA for your help,
