Having the Recycling containers on your side also allows you to cap non complete stacks as well. If you are with alliance partners that aren't capable of making a stack higher than 3, you can still maximize your points by capping and noodling all of the stacks. In fact, at lower levels of competition it may be more efficient to make 6 capped stacks of 3 than 3 complete stacks. Stacks of 3 are a lot safer than stacks of 6 when you may or may not have faith in your alliance partners' stacking/driving ability. This would also give you higher potential pool noodle points. Having all of the RC's on your side is an advantage no matter how you look at it. The only question is whether or not it's worth your time to go after them at lower levels of play, or if your time is better spent stacking.
