Can all trash be sent to a landfill?
Not always. Some materials may need to be handled differently because of local rules, the type of waste involved, or the way a particular landfill operates.
Why are some materials kept out of landfills?
Some materials need different handling because of safety, environmental, or regulatory concerns. Others may be banned from landfill disposal because there are better recovery, treatment, or recycling options available.
