Looking to recycle a high volume of dry pet food bags
Hello, I am working with a team of MBA students to develop a system for capturing and recycling dry pet food bags. We are working in partnership with Nestle Purina and PetSmart to find vendors who can recycle either one or both of the bag types: 1) #5 PP bags and 2)Multi-wall paper bags with a thin plastic liner. Does anyone have suggestions for facilities that can recycle a large amount of these material types? We are looking to launch a regional pilot program and then to scale the program up to other communities in the U.S. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, David

Great suggestions
Paul, My apologies for the delayed response. Yes, I am referring to the large woven polypropylene bags. I've taken a look at Preserve's Gimme 5 program and will be contacting them shortly to follow up. Thanks for the great suggestion. Also, I found a US based partner of Visy that we'll be contacting shortly as well. Thanks again for the great suggestions, David
