- Large bones and shells

- Non-compostable packaging (the old black guild cups and lids, the clear lids on the sugar cane BioPak trays)

- Hard plastics (rinsed):
(look for recycling symbols printed into the plastic with numbers 1, 2, or 5.)

- Remove lids of any bottles 

- Tin cans: both food and drink cans, rinsed 

- Glass: jars (lids removed) and bottles, rinsed

- Paper and Cardboard: clean e.g. not paper or cardboard used to serve food or drink
 

- All food waste, except large bones and hard shelled seafood

- Compostable packaging:
Look for the word compostable or PLA and the number 7 within a recycling symbol.
Most BioPak Packaging is compostable but look for these for reference.
