Omaha's Hefty® ReNew® Program
Omaha has a special, orange bag program to accept these hard-to-recycle plastic items! EMPTY and CLEAN plastic and foam items can be placed in an orange Hefty® ReNew® bag, which will be collected through existing curbside and drop-off site services. To participate, you can purchase orange bags at many local retailers. When filled with accepted materials and tied shut, the bright orange Hefty® ReNew® bag is the ONLY bag that can be placed in a curbside recycling cart or drop-off site container. Learn more about the local Hefty® ReNew® program at this link.
