RECYCLING UPDATES:
PREVENT RECEIPT CONTAMINATION
Did you know that not all paper is recyclable?Receipts are one of those paper items that do not belong in your recycling bin!This is
because most receipts are made with thermal paper containing chemical compounds that affect their ability to be made into new
products.The best way to dispose of receipts is in the trash,but if you're able to, next time skip the slip and ask for a digital receipt.
E-receipts cause less waste and allow easy access for future needs.
�E��•t�wr
Receipts are paper items that CANNOT be recycled!
— _ Toss in the!rash,
-_- and next time strip the slip!
