Bath Tissue! Go Green!

The wiping roll.
That's right. Even though recycling the actual TP is practically impossible, (although if that were possible, we would save a lot of trees. And I mean a LOT!) the packaging and core shouldn't go to waste. The core obviously can be recycled under the paper category, while the plastic outer wrapping can go under plastic. The problem is, only some of the recycling facilities accept it because this stuff will probably jam their systems. No need to worry! You can always send it to Terracycle, shipping paid free.

So NOW there SHOULDN'T be any reason for another core or plastic wrapping to end up in the evil landfill. Oh, and, this is vice versa with paper towel rolls.
