    Recycling Tetra Pack Milk Cartons

    I just rinse them out & put them in the recycling bin.

    Is this sufficent?

    Some people say - I should try are dry them out.

    I'm sure it doesn't make a huge difference either way.

    I say you're ahead of 95% of the country just by rinsing them, never mind trying to dry them.

    And I hope that you're not washing them with fresh water - use the washing up water when you're finished. I posted about tetra-pak before and somebody put up a video of the recycling process - it involves a lot of water!:)

    They make for great plant pots when putting up and potting on.
