Great news for us recyclers! Whole Foods Market stores are piloting a new program for recycling #5 plastic with Preserve http://www.preserveproducts.com/ called Gimme 5. #5 plastic is commonly used in containers for yogurt, cottage cheese, humus, medicine bottles, etc. In Rhode Island we don't have recycling for #5 pl...astics and it ends up in the state landfill.

You can now bring your #5 plastics to a drop-off bin at Whole Food Markets in Providence and Cranston. They will send the plastic to Preserve, who makes recycled household products including toothbrushes, razors, tableware, and kitchen products.

When they get it, the plastic is ground up and turned into clean plastic pellets. The pellets are then sent to Preserve's manufacturing facilities to be transformed into new Preserve products. Obviously, when you choose to purchase Preserve stuff that closes the loop on the whole recycling chain.
