Question

A meat plastic container was used with hot dairy, what is its status, and what if it got mixed with other containers?

Answer

Plastic containers cannot be kashered because there is a concern that they are like earthenware, which cannot be kashered. However, if they got mixed, since according to the Shulchan Aruch (KB, unlike the Shach) they are nullified in the majority, one can be lenient according to those poskim who hold that kashering is effective.
