Grocery shopping? Going on a lunch break? Packing for a vacation? Instead of simply throwing away plastic bags after a shopping trip, which can cause lasting and severely damaging effects on the environment, below are five ways to re-use them:
- Small trash can liners: plastic bags are the perfect size to line small trash cans in bathrooms and guest rooms.
- Pet waste bag or glove: when walking the dog or cleaning up a cat's litter box, it never hurts to be prepared. Utilizing the plastic grocery bag as a pet waste glove is a perfect way to save resources.
- Car trip trash: keep plastic bags in the glove compartment on longer car road trips in case anyone needs a place to dispose of trash or waste on the way.
- Plant protector: Cover outdoor potted plants during the evening or storms with old grocery store bags.
- Suitcase or box buffer: For those moving homes or storing items in closets or storage bins, always use plastic bags to act as a buffer for delicate items.
