Please Keep Plastic Bags Out of Curbside Recycling Carts
Please Keep Plastic Bags Out of Curbside Recycling Carts
Plastic bags are a common contaminant in curbside
recycling. Please do not put plastic
bags, or other film plastics in your blue commingle recycling cart. Examples of other film plastics are: saran
wrap, paper towel wrapping, newspaper wrap, bubble wrap, etc.
Plastic bags that end up in the recycling carts get tangled
and jam up the sorting machinery at the recycling processor. These contaminants
can also force the recycling facility to shut down the sorting line several
times throughout the day in order to clear the machinery of plastic bags.
Please recycle your plastic bags at your nearest participating
grocery stores.
For more information on what can and can’t be recycled in
Bend Garbage & Recycling’s service area, please visit bendgarbage.com and
download a recycling guide.
