You may be working very hard to recycle the plastic items in your house, but what can you do with all those #5 plastic items? These items made with polypropylene need to be separated from the #1-3 plastics. Bring your #5 Plastics to your local Whole Foods, which has recycling centers for these items. This can include medicine bottles, margarine tubs, some yogurt containers and more.
You can also mail your #5 Plastics to:
Preserve, a company committed to reusing #5 Plastics.
Preserve Gimme 5
