Polythene Magazine Wrappers


This is one of the most irritating sources of waste: companies send you catalogues and magazines wrapped in plastic, some of which we have subscribed to but many of which we have never asked for and don't want. We tear off this plastic wrapper and throw it away ...

Most of these plastic sleeves are made of polythene. You can tell because it's soft and stretchy, not crinkly or stiff.

This polythene can be recycled.

If your local authority recycling centre won't accept it (as yet, sadly few do), try one of the companies that make and supply the polythene. It is important that your polythene is clean, has no sticky or dirty residue, no selotape or labels; if it does, the whole batch will be rejected.

Put it in a properly sealed, addressed and sufficiently stamped envelope.
