Did you know? 

Although plastic bags and film cannot go in your recycling cart, they CAN be recycled at participating locations in The Woodlands, including H-E-B and Kroger. Any plastic bag or film that is clean, dry and stretchy can go back to the store for proper recycling. 

What happens next?

Each year, tons of plastic film are turned into composite lumber – a plasticized material used in park benches, picnic tables, decks, fences and playground equipment. This material is commonly used in our parks and pedestrian bridges. 

Want to learn more about how you can start turning your bags into benches?

Visit with us at one of our upcoming Plastic Film Outreach Days! An expert will be available to answer questions and provide examples of recyclables films. Reusable bags and shopping lists will be available while supplies last.
