[LM_NET] OT: School Cafeteria Recycling Programs

["Stokes, Lisa" <LStokes@ESU3.ORG>]

Dear Colleagues,
We are thinking about starting a recycling program for our cafeteria and some 
concerns have been raised about sanitation.  We already recycle paper in the 
classroom, but want to expand to plastic bottles, cans, etc. during lunch and 
possibly at other times.  We're trying to find out what or how other schools with 
full recycling programs handle the issues with bugs, storage, etc.  Do you really 
have any problems?  What kind of containers do you use until the materials are 
picked up or dropped off at the recycling centers?  Any help / ammo you can give us 
to help get our program off the ground would be great!

Thank you to all for your input!

Lisa
