Can I bag my paper in plastic bags? No. When recycling your paper,
keep plastic bags out of the mix. Plastic bags can contaminate the paper recycling process.
Can I bag my other recyclables in plastic bags?
No, plastic bags get in the way of the recycling process, and can't be recycled with cans and bottles and such.
Can I put plastic bags at the curb to be recycled? Most curbside recycling programs do not accept plastic bags.
Where can I recycle my plastic bags?
Some grocery stores have plastic bag collection bins. Just be sure there's no paper (like receipts) mixed in.
It's another case where paper and plastic don't mix!
Of course, always try to reduce the number of bags you accumulate. Whenever possible, go without a bag or bring
your own.
