Plastic Bag Collection
PLASTIC BAG COLLECTION
Each year, U. S. consumers throw away approximately 100 billion plastic shopping bags, which can take up to 1,000 years to decompose in a landfill. In addition, thousands of plastic bags are carried by the wind into forests, rivers, and lakes each year killing birds and mammals that get tangled in them or mistake them for food.
The environmentally friendly answer is to switch to reusable sturdy canvas or cloth bags that you bring from home. If you are not ready to purchase your own reusable bags, consolidate your purchases into as few bags as possible. When you get home, keep the plastic bags you brought home from the store. On your next shopping trip, reuse the bags or drop them in a plastic bag collection container to be recycled. Plastic bag collection points are found in the Acme Markets and Shop Rite Markets throughout Cumberland County.
