Uses for Empty Pellet Bags

[Rokal]

Has anyone found any good uses for empty pellet bags? It seems like a real waste to dispose of them in the trash.

My town doesn't recyle plastic bags.

I use them in the garage as garbage bags

We use them for Kitchen garbage can liners. Have enough to last all year, plus plenty for family.

My idea is to have the pellet manufacturer place a zip lock on the bag and then reuse them. We could turn them in at a location such as one who sells pellets and they could buy them back from us!!

Do a search on the forum..Heavily discussed topic.

+We stuff ours as full as they go with recyclable soft plastic of all sorts then take it in for recycle. A few of the stores will take it for making their plastic bags. Believe it or not you can stuff one full every 2 weeks with the plastic debris from a family of 3. That's about 15 LBS. Because the bags are so stout they can be really packed tight using your foot unlike a garbage bag.

Filled 40 last spring with corn from the old freezer in the garage and covered gravity box outside. Mixing with the pellets till it is all gone. Fold flat the empty ones and stuff one bag full of them, ready for the next use.

I cut two holes in them and then put them on my head. I chase my wife around the house yelling "Captain CAAAAAVVVEEMAAAAN!"


No- I use them as garbage bags in our kitchen. They fit great in our can.

I stuff them into one bag and throw them in the comingle recycle bin at the dump in my town since most of the bags have a recycle code on them, we already use shopping bags for our trash so we don't need them for that.
