Ridwell News: Start saving these 3 plastic “regulars”!

Starting this summer and throughout the year, we’ll be collecting  prescription pill bottles, loose plastic bottle caps, and bread tags pop up as free, consistent featured categories. These little guys add up, so start saving now!

  • Prescription pill bottles: Rx bottles only, please! Ridwell asks that we remove labels for privacy and processing and recycling. This will be collected twice a year so be on the lookout for a notice that it’s time.
  • Loose plastic bottle caps: So many loose bottle caps floating around the house, on the car floor, and buried in purses and bags. When the cap can’t be recycled with the bottle, toss it in the Ridwell bin.
  • Bread tags: Save bread tags in a jar and we will let you know when it is time to turn them in.

In addition, due to the successful Styrofoam collection last month, we are going to try collecting on an ongoing basis. Drop your Styrofoam off in the large bin with a bright orange bag—now in our chapel hallway.                                             —Lisa Kjaer
