Reduce
When shopping, don't accept unwanted plastic bags - take reusable bags with you.
Reuse
Plastic bags can be re-used as bin liners or dog litter bags.
Some charity shops may accept plastic bags for reuse.
Recycle
Most supermarkets offer soft and flexible plastic recycling.
- Tesco
- Sainsbury’s
- Co-op
- Aldi
- Morrisons
- Asda
- M&S
Please check with the store in advance or check on the recycling locator.
Disposal
Plastic bags and film can't be put in your kerbside recycling bin or recycled at the Suffolk Recycling Centre.
Bags brought to the Recycling Centres will have to put in general non-recyclable due to increasing difficulty finding markets for this material or they can go in your household rubbish bin at home.
