Help Josephine keep plastic film from landfills!
Hi, I am Josephine, a sophomore at Westridge School who is concerned about the climate crisis. I’m organizing a free pickup of plastic film on Sat, 1/18 from homes in 91208, 91020 & 91214, 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 1/12/25

How it works
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.” Josephine 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 91208, 91020 & 91214!
