Pesticide Container Recycling Program
Pesticide container recycling is a national
program supported by most of the major agrichemical manufacturers and distributors. The
program's goal is to recycle empty, clean plastic agrichemical containers to end products
that avoid potential environmental contamination and conserve valuable landfill space. The
current end use for the recycled plastic is
plastic shipping pallets
(109 KB) for use in the agrichemical industry.
For more
information about the program, see the
US Ag Recycling website.
