1. Empty ice cream cartons and lids YES

2. Large Dog Biscuit bags – they seem to fit heavy plastic criteria but not sure NO

3. Empty Potting Mix or Compost plastic sacks/bags NO

4. Large empty plastic Apple Juice/Cranberry Juice bottles and lids – harder than milk bottles YES

5. Empty Toothpaste containers NO

6. Used Toothbrushes NO
