If you clean them carefully, you can re-use them. Make sure what you're re-using them for is something plastic is good for (for example, don't store paint thinner in them; it'll dissolve them -- you get the idea :} ).

∙ 12y agoI know what it's like to have a wild craving for ice cream. But you'd have to be bonkers to enjoy it after it has been left in the fridge. I'm not sure, but I doubt that it would freeze very well after that. It may not hurt you, but c'mon. Go out and buy some fresh.

What is primary recycling?
the most common examples of primary recycling (reuse) are with glass containers, where milk and drinks bottles are returned to be cleaned and used again. reuse is not widely practiced in relation to plastic packaging - plastic products in general end to be discarded after first use. however, there are examples of reuse in the marketplace. for example, a number of detergent manufacturers market refill sachets for bottled washing liquids and fabric softeners. consumers can refill and hence reuse their plastic bottles at home.
