Hi,
Does anyone have a list of types of plastics, eg. under milk containers its a number 2, juice bottles no.1, takeaway containers no. 5.
I had a print out of what all the different numbers are but can't for the life of me find it when I need it.
Thanks Estelle.

Thanks Jazz, I just printed that out, I also found one similar on Wikepidia. I will file them both properly this time ready again for next year.
