Ok, so because reasons i have lots of dirty cans building up in my house, and cleaning them all to put them in the recycling has stopped me from putting them in the recycling and caused them to build up further.
Basically, how much does it matter that these cans are clean before i recycle them?
I live in the UK if that helps. Thanks!
This really depends on the technology and equipment employed by whatever Material Reclamation Facility (MRF) your locality is using. They can vary greatly and it’s worth checking with your local recycling authority.
