Wrapping Paper

Regular, uncoated wrapping paper (including tissue paper) should be placed in your blue bin to be recycled. Remove ribbons and bows for reuse. Tape can be left on. Wrapping paper with glitter, foil, metallic print, mylar, cellophane, or coatings are not recyclable and should be placed in your household trash. To determine if wrapping paper is coated, pinch the edge of the paper and pull it apart slightly. If it stretches, or if you see a plastic or foil layer appear, then it belongs in the trash. If you can’t determine the material, dispose of it with household trash.
