The foundation of the Build with Bags^TM program is the Best Bagging Practices Guide, which is intended to provide stores suggestions on meeting the program’s goals. The suggestions offered in this guide provide Iowa grocers a real opportunity to measurably increase the recycling of plastic bags while also driving down consumption of plastic bags. It has been encouraged that retailers consider the suggestions offered in the Best Bagging Practices Guide while also recognizing that store’s own efforts should be customized to fit their unique situation.
