Did you know??
What happens when you use one of those big green plastic garden waste bags you get from hardware stores? I always assumed that the firm picks them up from your home, takes to the dump, empties them, cleans them and puts them back in the market. See photo from the Rosedale dump.
I asked one of the staff what happens to them. He told me that at the end of each day, they use one of the diggers to reach up, grab the bag by a corner, shake it empty, then it goes into the waste material, not recycled at all.
So if you are a conservationist, you may want to think again about using these. I put a big plastic cover in my boot with rear seats folded down, take our green waste to the dump. Cost me $27 today for a big load. Or perhaps you have family or friend with a towbar and trailer?
