The newest recycling guidelines recommend keeping lids on plastic bottles.
Swarthmore’s recycling handler, Republic Services, requests that lids be kept on plastic food and liquid containers; caps cannot be recycled separately. Alternatively, caps can be donated to schools for reuse in art projects.
Here is information from the Association for Plastic Recyclers website:
