Dear Recycle Lady,Can Ziplock baggies be recycled? Some Say Yes and Some Say NoDear Some Say Yes and Some Say No,Yes, Ziplock baggies, as well as other brands of baggies, can be recycled in the Trex Boxes for plastic film. However, there are two types of zipper closings on the baggies that must be considered before recycling the baggies. The downside of Ziplock baggies and all baggies is that they are made of plastic, which is made from petroleum, a non-renewable resource. This includes Stasher Silicone food bags, Beeswax sandwich bags, plant-based food wraps, If You Care Sandwich bags, and Cleanomic baggies.
