What can be recycled?
Hopefully your Spanish is good enough that you can understand these images. They will NOT take batteries, light bulbs, ceramics, used paper, paper plates/glasses; window glass or windshields; styrofoam; or construction debris.
It's also useful to know how long these things last in the environment and why it's so important to recycle!
AND....
About Recycling Batteries in Grecia
By Irina Just
I was asked to report on where to recycle batteries.
In Grecia, the small ones (AA, AAA, 9 V, etc.) can be recycled at ICE. Just show the guard your bag and empty it in the recycling container in the lobby.
Larger batteries - we had three huge “battery back-ups” from our computer and TV, which finally died - they were a bit harder to expose of. We finally were told about “Super Batterias”, a store on the radial, towards the pista. On the left-hand side as your heading out of Grecia, shortly after the Matrix exercise center, approximately 100 m past the CCSS offices - and indeed, they took our huge and heavy batteries and promised to recycle them. Mission accomplished!
