  1. You can take cereal liners, dry cleaning bags, etc. along w/ shopping bags to supermarkets that have collection bins. Putting the wrong stuff in your blue bin screws up the system. PS co-op takes some of the things the city doesn’t accept.

  2. Expert, I don’t think they recycle the bags from cereal but I could be wrong. Hey, that’s a good use for the dry cleaning bags! If you look at the link I posted above, they really limit the actual stuff that gets recycled. I’m so disappointed. : (

  3. “And I’m not always sure I’m putting the right plastics in that recycle bin, so I put it all in thinking they will sort it out for me, and better not to miss something.”

    I do the same. And I mean everything plasticy.
    Like the cereal bags. I empty out the crumbs and throw the plastic bag in my recylce pail. Is that Ok?

    Also, I use the plastic bags I get from the dry cleaner (the ones that the clothes come in) as bags to put my recyclables in. I tie the end (where the hanger was poking out of) and put it in my pails.
