There should be a symbol that says not-recyclable! Which would be great when my SO tries to put another milk carton in the cardboard recycling again.

Everything is recyclable. Not everything is cheaply recyclable. Hence some places are willing to recycle things like Styrofoam and some aren't - it's all about cost.

Recycling cardboard/steel/glass is cheap (you can even make money).

Recycling Styrofoam is expensive (you'll probably lose money).

Some places do recycle milk cartons though.
