Q: On the Ziploc boxes it states that when clean and dry, Ziploc bags can be recycled, is this true for our recycling?

Thank for another great question! While the box says you may recycle Ziploc bags, the local recycling service does not accept plastic bags of any sort. This includes Ziploc bags, grocery bags and newspaper bags. 

If you are looking to go green they now make reusable sandwich and snack bags along with the reusable grocery bags. They come in many different sizes and can be washed by hand or in the washing machine along with your laundry. I’ve seen them at Target and have also made my own from table clothes, a simple and fun do-it-yourself project. Many grocery and convenience stores also offer discounts for bringing your own reusable grocery sacks as well.

Thanks for another great question!
