Those “Bag Recycling†Bins Will Alway End up in the Cardboard Compactor and Eventually the Landfill
What about it?
I work at a cardboard recycling facility. All the cardboard compactors from all the stores in the county come to my facility.
I always have to pick the bags of plastic out of the compactors when they unload for baling.
This is the bags I get out of **one compactor** and I see 20 loads a day.
No one actually collects these from the store. The store throws them in the cardboard compactor.
We told the stores we don’t do anything with bags and we wont recycle them. They still throw the bags in the cardboard.
These go in the dumpster to the landfill.
