Thus, in 2015 were recycled 6,513,180 kilos of glass, 4,716,560 containers and 5,338,412 kilos of paper
Within the yellow packaging container the proportions of waste are Plastics (pet, pead, film ...) 48.78%, Metals (cans ...) 20.52% and Carton drinks and food (break) 10.68%.
The difference up to 100 is improper (residues that are not of this container and there is confusion, the most frequent ones are: Cellulosas, textile, material with organic matter, glass and other plastics noncontainers)
Murcia had 3,669 selective containers in 2015 which is 52% more than in 2005 when there were 2,407.

In the paper container, the most spectacular increase has been seen in the commercial carton that is collected with a special door-to-door service and this year is expected to rise above 17% over last year.
This is due to the visits of the Civic Brigades to all shops and establishments, informing about the need for collaboration and the special door-to-door service and the adaptation of this special collection service to business hours.
As for glass, it has also been increased by the door-to-door service in the hotel trade, where a small container was supplied free of charge and the glass is collected at the door in the stipulated time with the bars and restaurants
