• There are %26quot;chemicals%26quot; that will remove pesky stickers, such as %26quot;Goo-B-Gone. I also use WD 40 and/or alcohol. Some containers can be soaked in water, ie: wine bottles to remove labels.
  In my area, none of that stuff has to be removed. 0% 0 Votes

  I was wondering that exact thing last night while I sorted through the recycling materials. I%26#039;m concerned that some of the #6 plastics will be refused because I couldn%26#039;t get the adhesive off. As I cleaned one glass bottle, I wondered how many of them were tossed because the person who would have been willing to recycle simply couldn%26#039;t get the label off easily.
  
  I am troubled by children%26#039;s toys, as well. The wrapping will be tossed in just seconds, but I suspect the wrapper often costs more in both terms of actual money and in terms of materials used than the toy inside it.
