Whether you’ve just moved (as well) or received some gifts wrapped in bubble wrap over the holiday season, packaging may be unavoidable. What can you do with bubble wrap after you’re finished with it?

Reusing resources is always the best option. Try donating it to a shipping store or listing it on CraigsList or Freecycle. Residents (and businesses) are constantly moving, so there should be someone who has a need for it!

Also, Bubble Wrap DOES have a recycling program.
