Is bubble wrap accepted in your blue bin?
3...2...1...

Bubble wrap and plastic packaging are not accepted in the blue bin.

Bubble wrap can be reused many times before it wears out. If you do not need it, consider giving it to someone who is moving or shipping items. If it cannot be reused, it belongs in the garbage.

โš ๏ธDo not put plastic wrap or plastic bags in your blue bin. They get tangled in conveyor belts at sorting facilities, causing delays or damage.

Forget the numbers, focus on the type of material.

Most plastic packaging for food, beverage, hygiene, and cleaning products is accepted in your blue bin. Black plastic, foam, and plastic film are not accepted.

Yogurt cups and containers are accepted in Manitoba.
