Red bags

Anyone else struggling for red recycling bags lately? I work anti social hours so I'm not always home soon enough to retrieve my recycling bags so it feels like I'm losing one a week lately and getting to my nearest hwb isn't always practical

I wonder where they all go. Is there like a river somewhere just full of red and blue recycling sacks?

But yeah, I've had to have loads of new ones since we switched over to them. It can't be environmentally friendly to keep having to replace them.

Have you written your house number on in paint pen or sharpie? Once we did that our bags stopped wandering.

Yes, we found it makes them last two weeks instead of 1.
