Most recycling bins are made of different types of plastic for a few reasons:
- Plastic can be made using large amounts of recycled content which is better for the environment
- The color of the plastic can be easily customized to match different recycling programs
- Most plastics are 100% recyclable
- Plastic is durable enough to hold large amounts of recyclables
- Plastic will not rust or dent unlike concrete or metal
- The manufacturing of plastic recycling bins has a smaller carbon foot print then ones manufactured out of metal
