Step 2 : Prepare your plastic for recycling

Silage Wrap and Pit Covers:
After cutting the wrap from the bale:
- Separate the bale net from the wrap
- Shake, roll and stuff the wrap into the bag
- Shake the net and place it in a separate bag from your silage wrap and pit covers
Wrap needn't be "clean and dry", but the cleaner and drier, the more you'll fit in the bag!
Pit covers should be cut into strips to make it easier to put them in the recycling bags.
Fiber Fresh Feed bags:
- Shake the empty bags to remove any organic matter
- Stuff the feed bags in the recycling bag
Silage wrap, pit covers and feed bags can be placed in the same bag.
Bale net must be in a separate bag.
