Happy back to school season! #TBT to the WM Recycle Corps interns being paws-itively pleased to meet student recyclers at Bremerton Farmer's Market Back-To-School Days. Star pupils learned they can #RecycleRight by keeping food and liquid out of recycling, at home and at school.

Recycling is totes amazing! WM Recycle Corps interns distributed informational recycling totes to multifamily properties in Seattle. The goal? Make it clear what goes in the recycling & give residents a way to carry recyclables to the cart. #RecycleRight with ease & efficiency!

Reducing food waste and composting helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions. WM Recycle Corps interns saw food waste compost systems first hand on a tour of Restaurant to Garden in Seattle. Tip: Use a countertop compost container to collect food scraps for your compost cart!

What do cleaning supplies, pesticides & WM Recycle Corps interns have in common? They were all at the South Seattle Hazardous Waste facility tour! They learned that hazardous waste cannot go in the garbage, toilet or sink. Instead, bring them to a #RecycleRight collection event.

Thank you to everyone who pledged to #RecycleRight at the Greenbridge Health and Back to School Fair! WM Recycle Corps interns heard from many of you about your recycling goals. Our favorite pledge was, "Reminding my boyfriend not to put plastic bags in the recycling." 😆 Bingo!

Thanks to all who visited the WM booth at the Othello Park International Festival! WM Recycle Corps interns were inspired by your eagerness to learn how to #RecycleRight. A key recycling tip? No plastic bags in recycling carts. Props to everyone with a reusable water bottle, too!

Did you know extreme temperature fluctuations can cause lithium-ion batteries to become unstable, oftentimes leading to fires? When disposing of batteries, do not place them in curbside garbage or recycling carts! Visit call2recycle.org to find a disposal site near you.

Can it get more PNW than a meetup with a Dick's Shake, Cool Bird & the WM Recycle Corps interns? Yes - make it a meetup where you #RecycleRight! Interns at Federal Way Kids Day had plenty of tips for neighborhood kiddos. The big takeaway? Keep plastic bags out of recycling carts.

Big day in Bremerton! WM Recycle Corps interns engaged local businesses like Paul's Flowers and Reptile Zone to help reduce waste, improve composting and #RecycleRight. They also toured the Olympic View Transfer Station, where residents bring materials to recycle.
