Recycle Machines

The rule of thumb is: anything a human can consume, raw or cooked, can be placed into the machine.

Anything that is not organic - for example, plastic, glass, metal products. Putting these items into the machine can potentially lead to machine damage and malfunction.

Small sized bones, like chicken bones and fish bones can be put into the machine. Large swine bones, lamb shank bones or cow bones are not recommended.

Only soft seafood shells can be put into the machine like shrimp or prawn shells. Do not put lobster, crab, mussels or clam shells into the machine as it will not break down due to its high calcium level and can potentially cause damage to the machine.

The machines can handle a small amount of yard trimmings like grass and leaves. It is not recommended to add plant roots as it can wrap around the machine's axis and blades.
