Dropping off plastic bags or Amazon mailers at Wal-Mart for recycling? Maybe you shouldn't.
At least in Northern #Virginia, seems Wal-Mart just sends them to landfills/incinerators. Wouldn't be surprised if locations across the country do that.
Not the most scientific and rigorous study, but it's more info than I had before. And tells which grocers might be better.
Faith Alliance for Climate Solutions · Do Grocery Stores Really Recycle Your Plastic Bags? I Put 7 Chains to the Test.If you want your plastic bags recycled, the grocery store chain you choose to go to makes a difference. Some grocery chains in Fairfax and Loudoun Counties recycle consistently, while others send off the contents of their recycling bins to a Virginia landfill or incinerator. We need grocery stores to step up—and we need shoppers to choose wisely while speaking up about why these choices matter.

Continued thread
I’m casually looking, but if you or a colleague are looking for someone w/ a 10y background in #ReliabilityEngineering (#manufacturing, not software) & a burgeoning skill set in #Data #Analytics (halfway through #GaTech #OMSA ), please do tell. I’m in the #DC #DMV #NoVa area & am not willing to relocate. I can travel when needed & work remotely otherwise. I can share a resume or #LinkedIn profile upon request.

—
Towing companies can sell vehicles if owners don’t reclaim them or can’t afford the fees. To protect drivers, they’re supposed to turn over unclaimed profits, but the state says that’s never happened.
