Aseptic Packaging - Household Waste Guide

Includes juice boxes, milk cartons, etc.

Aseptic packaging (mainly juice boxes, but also includes milk and juice cartons and other layered packaging for liquids) consists of several layers of paper, plastic and/or aluminum that need to be separated, making it difficult to recycle. Aseptic packaging makes up only .03% of the entire solid waste stream, creating little market interest for the packaging. Aseptic packaging is not recyclable in Kent County at this time.
