What and how to recycle is different depending on where you live. Asceptic packaging such as milk and juice cartons are indeed accepted or required for recycling in some locales. The paper is high-quality virgin stock, and there is often a layer of valuable foil in juice boxes.

In NYC, milk or juice cartons and drink boxes are placed in the same (blue-labeled) bin with other beverage containers, bottles & jars, metal and foil; you'll find more info at www.nyc.gov/recycle. In other places, all recyclables are collected in the same bin. Check with your local authorities.
