Really dumb recycling question

[serious-noir.livejournal.com]

I'm shredding years worth of old financial docs for recycling but discover that I don't have any paper bags to put the shreds in. I read on the S'ville recycling site a few weeks ago that plastic bags *aren't* supposed to go in recycling. Or at least I thought I read that.

Have I completely got it wrong? Can I put my paper shreds in a plastic trash bag and dump that in my Big Blue Bin?


(see - told you it was a dumb question... )

I'm sure MIT has other battery-recycling bins; that's just the one I know about and use. This page says there's another one in the Student Center first floor.

(Whether they want the leaking batteries, I don't know.)
