A recycling method whereby a plastic bag or other recyclable item that satisfies applicable manufacturing specifications and is part of a recycling program is marked with a logo and a recycling bag that is part of the same recycling program is marked with a matching logo. Consumers discard plastic bags or the other recyclable items bearing the logo by depositing them in recycling bags bearing the matching logo. The filled recycling bags are subsequently collected for recycling. The system enables consumers to identify qualifying plastic bags and other qualifying recyclables instantaneously and reliably and provides a simple and easily learnable method for their disposal. The system also keeps qualifying plastic bags and other qualifying recyclables segregated from the rest of the waste and recycling streams and protects them from becoming contaminated.
