some of this):

Are plastic pots normally recyclable even though they might not have a
recyclable image on them?


As a rough rule of thumb, recyclable plastic can be stamped on and
flattened without splitting or cracking into bits.

Plastic pots are brittle and my council would throw them back at me if
found in my plastic/bottle box.



They all have a number on which indicates what they are.

Food containers aren't allowed *yet* in our recycling. (I think they
mainly mean meat packaging)
