But are they recyclable?…..

Yes, I have saved them for years….in a closet….hundreds of them….feeling too guilty to throw them away…and yes, I have used them for hundreds of craft projects.  I have used them for building blocks.  I have used them for everything I can think of….I am tired of them sitting in my closet…..I want to be rid of them.  I need to know if they are recyclable???  I feel too guilty throwing them all away…so I just keep adding more and more.  I sew A LOT, therefore I have a lot of empty thread spools!!  I have tried to email Gutermann and Coats & Clark…but I never get a reply….

Does anyone out there know if plastic sewing spools are recyclable??  Help!!

UPDATE:  I JUST GOT AN EMAIL FROM COATS & CLARK…THEIR PLASTIC SEWING SPOOLS ARE #5…..WELL..SO, THEY ARE RECYCLABLE…THOUGH MY TOWN DOESN’T RECYCLE #5..SO I HAVE TO SEND THEM OFF TO SOMEWHERE THAT DOES……I’ll keep ya posted…
