Recycling "Sheimos"

Hi,

Printed works which contain Gd's Name ("sheimos") may not be submitted for recycling. It is possible that this might be acceptable for Torah texts which do not contain Gd's Name and which are no longer usable due to wear, but that requires examination.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 4:39)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
