Is there an easy way to remove labels from recyclable containers?
It seems that by preparing plastic, metal, and glass containers for recycling, you almost waste as much energy, time, soap, and water just trying to get the dang things clean and label free. Isn’t there a more effecient and waste-less way to remove labels?
Why do you do it? The recycling plant will crush all the glass and heat it in a furnace. Any labels will simply burn away. The same goes for steel cans. Aluminium cans generally have no labels. In countries with well established infrastructure many containers are designed for recycling so paper based containers will have paper labels and plastics based ones will have plastic labels.
If this is a requirement imposed on you by the local garbage collection system you should campaign to have it changed (or at least mention it to someone).
