Recycling Bins & Chutes
Clear plastic like this is usually PET which is technically recyclable. While it is accepted in Blue Bins, we do not believe it will get recycled as there is no secondary market for this kind of thermoformed PET container.
Never send for recycling if it has any food waste on it.

Info & Insights
Waste plastic is a very low value material and is generally not accepted by karung guni or cash for trash for this reason.
Virtually nobody wants it which is why avoiding it in the first place is the best bet.
It is quite hard to avoid these containers unless you shop at the wet market (hint hint).
