Ok, so because reasons i have lots of dirty cans building up in my house, and cleaning them all to put them in the recycling has stopped me from putting them in the recycling and caused them to build up further.

Basically, how much does it matter that these cans are clean before i recycle them?

I live in the UK if that helps. Thanks!

    I was gonna say, I think most “recycling” is basically a scam in the US. I’m talking about the bins given to you by the city. They are just as big as the trash bins, and picked up every other week. Nobody is making sure what they put in the recycling bins is actually recyclable, and no is checking and sorting that shit.

    No one wants to believe that’s possible. Try to do some unbiased research about it.
