If I can use plastic bags to line either bin, why can I place such plastic items as yogurt containers or plastic wrap in the bins?

While it’s okay to line your containers with plastic bags, it is not okay to include your plastic baggies, bread bags, and other plastic packaging. Too much plastic causes serious quality problems at the processing facility. The mechanisms at our organics processing facility are designed to remove the plastic bags you use to line your containers, but not plastic packaging. Bottom line, plastic is not good for the final product. We appreciate your help in producing clean, rich compost.
