Got any plastics to contribute?

Do you have an abundance of plastic bags you are looking to get rid of? The city is partnering with TREX Recycling Program and they have challenged us to collect 500 pounds of unwanted plastic materials. If we can collect 500 pounds of plastic bags they will make us a community bench out of the recycled materials! Not only are you helping to keep thousands of pounds of waste out of landfills, you're also helping TREX to continue to create beautiful and environmentally responsible outdoor products.

ITEMS YOU CAN BRING TO HELP US MEET OUR GOAL: grocery bags, bread bags, case over wrap, dry cleaning bags, newspaper sleeves, ice bags, wood pellet bags, ziplock & other re-sealable bags, produce bags, bubble wrap, salt bags, and cereal bags ALL MATERIALS MUST BE CLEAN, DRY, AND FREE OF FOOD RESIDUE
