Can milk cartons be recycled?

Living in Africa, people fill milk cartons with mud and let it dry - hey presto recycled brick, enough and you can build a shelter a house whatever... go further, they make green houses out of used plastic bottles! You can't beat the dark continent!

Cartons? I haven't seen one of them in decades, when I was young enough to want to recycle one of them into a miniature outhouse. Now, we use milk jugs made of HDPE, which are prime material for recycling.

They can be repurposed, which is sort of like recycling. At a very young age us kids learned how to make a file cabinet out of them. For pure recycling, they go in the plastic bin .

Yes. Into third grade artwork.
