General Information

Look for the recycling symbol with a number on the bottom of recyclable consumer liquid bottles. Most recyclers who accept plastic take bottles with the number 1 (PET) or 2 (HDPE), and the City's Recycling Facility plastic containers #1 through #7. For a handy reference that provides general information on what these symbols mean (what they are manufactured into and get recycled into) and which ones Fort Collins recycles, check out this handy poster General Information on Plastic Recycling.

DO NOT include oil, chemical or pesticide bottles.
