Plastic film recycling project in Lake Forest Park

From "Bag it: The Movie"

The City of Lake Forest Park is hosting a plastic film recycling challenge for six months. The project, which started on August 1, looks to collect plastic materials not usually recycled locally.

• Grocery bags
• Bread bags
• Case overwrap
• Dry cleaning bags
• Newspaper sleeves
• Ice bags
• Wood pellet bags
• Ziploc and other reclosable bags
• Produce bags
• Bubble wrap
• Salt bags and Cereal bags.

All materials must be clean. Two bins are located outside of City Hall for collection of these plastic materials. 

If the City recycles enough plastic film, a free recycled bench by Trex will be donated for Whispering Willow Park. Volunteers on the Environmental Quality Commission are collecting, transporting and tabulating plastic collections totals.
