*Plastic shopping bags are recyclable at many local grocery and retail stores. Some haulers accept when several bags are stuffed into a bag and tied. Check with your hauler. See our Plastic - Bags page for a list of locations that recycle plastic bags.
Containers and packaging not listed above or those that have held chemicals cannot be recycled as they contaminate the “new” batch of plastic and make it unusable.

HDPE #2 is recycled into new containers, drainage pipe, film, pallets and plastic lumber for picnic tables and decks. PVC #3 is recycled into fencing, drainage pipe, traffic cones, and automotive floor mats. LDPE #4 is recycled into plastic lumber, garbage can liners, trash cans and other film. PP #5 is recycled into pallets, DVD cases, brushes and plastic lumber. PS #6 is recycled into rigid foam insulation, rigid foam packaging and cassette tapes. Other #7 is a combination of plastics, some are compostable in an organics recycling program and the non-compostable can be recycled into plastic lumber.
