Back when NHRBA was alive, the organization found a need to recycle the shrink wrap. Back then some transfer station will take it as trash and some will not take them! The committee found one marina actually burying the shrink wrap! The organization found one outfit in Mass. that will pay to recycle the shrink wrap. One spring they had a recycle program where everyone bring their shrank wraps to Channel Marine. They had volunteers collect the shrink wrap and hauled it to Mass. I understand they made a few thousand dollars.

Not sure now, if you can get money, but it will be a worthy cause for an organization like the Youth sailboat program or the Loon Sanctuary to make money and save the environment!
