Help Charlie keep plastic film from landfills!
Hi, I am Charlie, a freshman at Eastlake High School who is concerned about the climate crisis. I’m organizing a free pickup of plastic film on Mon, 1/20 from homes in 98074 & 98053, with the help of Ridwell who will get it turned into composite decking. Please sign up and spread the word to neighbors so we can make our community a better and less wasteful place!
Register by 8 pm on 1/15/25
"I am excited to make a difference for the environment because every action contributes to a healthier planet. By reducing waste, we can help the environment and make Earth a cleaner place for all of us.”

Collect your plastic film
This includes clean and stretchy thins plastics, none of which can be recycled curbside (see all the details here). Collect it in a plastic bag (which will also be recycled!).
Leave it on your porch
On pickup day, just leave your bag on your porch (or another visible spot) by 8 am and label it “Ridwell.” Charlie will come pick it up and bring it to Ridwell!
We’ll make sure your stuff gets recycled
Rather than spend 5,000 years in a landfill, Ridwell’s partner will give your plastic film new life as composite decking!
Let’s clean up 98074 & 98053!
