Should I wash my recycling before placing it in the bin?
Just one rinse for recycling should be sufficient. Cans, jars and bottles that are rinsed before recycling are cleaner and thus more valuable. Also, clean containers are less attractive to bugs. Bottle caps can remain on the bottle for recycling.
