Wow, this new technology could really make it easier for people to recycle. I'd sure love to toss junk mail in the mixed paper bin without first trashing the plastic window envelopes. I'll be sure to keep my eyes peeled for a change in technology in Durham. Folks, per Donna's comment, let's all check our local recycling Web sites to see whether plastic windows are allowed in our specific area. Donna, thanks so much for your comment.

New technology allows them to sort it out later. Orange County (NC) website doesn't say anything about the windows, positive or negative; Durham, NC says no windows. They both have extensive lists of what can and can't be recycled and options for things they can't recycle like athletic shoes that are too bad for a thrift store (Nike makes courts and tracks from them).
