Plastic grocery bags can NOT be placed in the recycling drop-off containers or in your curbside recycling containers.
Please check with you local grocery stores for recycling programs. They are not compostable.
Plastic bags can be reused, but not recycled or composted. Bags marked “biodegradable” are not compostable, either, as they take too long to break down.
Please dispose of plastic bags with your household trash.
Businesses who generate a large amount of plastic film (shrink wrap, pallet wrap, etc.) can contact A.R.C.C. (Additional Recyclables Collection Center) in Barre, VT and recycle large amounts through their company.
