How to Dispose

4 Golden Rules of Recycling
  1. 1

    Try to separate the fabric or vinyl canopy from the metal frame using scissors

  2. 2

    Recycle the metal frame as metal scrap/cans

  3. 3

    Discard the canopy and plastic handle in the general waste bag

Real-World Examples

Case 1

Long umbrella with broken ribs: Cut off the fabric/vinyl canopy with scissors and throw it in general waste; dispose of the metal frame and pole in metal scrap recycling

Case 2

3-fold automatic umbrella: High risk of internal spring snapping; tie securely and discard in metal recycling, or put in general trash if impossible to disassemble
