Mine are all Styrofoam. What do you have?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

styrofoam is recyclable and requires rinsing before recycling

Quick search says

Styrofoam is recyclable, but it is only accepted by a very small number of recycling facilities.

So maybe technically but not in practice in most places.

The ones around here are made of P.E.T. Recyclable and washable.
