I am looking for places that will accept and recycle my trash plastics.  I
live and work in Cupertino, and I'd like to not have to travel too far.

So far, I know of ways to recycle #1 (Cupertino curbside pickup), #2
(Stanford Recycling, though I'd like to find a closer place since I'm not
often up that way), and #6 (my employer recycles its #6 cafeteria takeout
containers).  My grocery store also takes #4 plastic bags.  But I can't
find any place that will take #3, #5, #7, or #4 (except the plastic bags).
Places that take unmarked plastic would also be wonderful, but I suspect
that's too much to hope for.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.  Please reply via e-mail,
as I don't regularly read this group.


Thanks,

Ken Brown
