You are correct. All numbers are acceptable for putting in our recycling bins and nothing goes to our landfill in Albuquerque according to the Waste Management Department. Waste Connections then hauls the recycles to a BARCO site but the items that have a market for them to sell shifts.

The city of Albuquerque DOES NOT ACCEPT #6 for recycling. If you want to keep it out of the landfill drop off at The Foam Recycler, 6204 2nd St. Unit D, Albuquerque. They have bins outside for deposit anytime

According to above info that seems inaccurate. Please clarify. Thank you
