Donate old items to your local thrift shop or make sure they are properly recycled. Go to our Reuse and Recycling Center to find out where to take your obsolete items or visit our Re-Use Center . Planning for the Holidays? Packaging Have fun discovering new ways to make your gift look good without needless waste. Gift decorating is a great way to be creative. Creative substitutes for wrapping paper include scarves, tins, baskets, bags, old maps and calendars, used blueprint paper, or just a nice bow. Specifically selected sections of the newspaper also make fun wrapping paper. Keep gift boxes and bags that you receive and use them to present a gift to someone else. Wrapping paper and bows can be treated the same way. Decorate boxes with magazine cutouts or design your own wrapping paper using paper bags. Instead of using plastic ribbon, trim your gifts with dried flowers, pinecones, yarn, twine, shoelaces, paper or fabric ribbons. If you do choose to use wrapping paper, look for paper containing recycled content. You can also purchase solid colored paper that can be used for occasions throughout the year and decorated with different bows, stickers, and artwork. Did you know packing peanuts are recyclable? They can be taken to many of The UPS Stores (formerly Mail Boxes Etc.) and other stores that provide packaging and mailing services. When you choose packing materials, if you don't have packing peanuts to reuse, you might try cornstarch biodegradable packing material or consider "air cushioning," (filling sealable bags with air to provide support). © 2005 San Mateo County RecycleWorks Contact Us Order Posters & Publications County Facilities
