COLLINGSWOOD, NJ – The majority of people in the Garden State have no problem with the plastic bag ban that takes effect just after midnight on Wednesday.
A recent Monmouth University poll of 802 New Jersey adults conducted at the end of March and beginning of April found 61% of New Jersey residents support a plastic bag ban.
However, far fewer may completely understand the ban and all its components. The same poll showed 33% have heard a lot about the ban and 37% have heard a little about it.
If one of the things you have not heard is where to get a reusable tote, below is a list of some of the places in and around Collingswood where you may be able to pick one up (this is not necessarily a complete list). Some of these entities are giving their bags away for free, while others are charging a fee.
Acme at 40 Ellis Street in Haddonfield Dollar Tree at 662 West Cuthbert Boulevard in Haddon Township Target at 650 West Cuthbert Boulevard in Haddon Township ShopRite at 130 Black Horse Pike in Lawnside Wawa at 801 Haddon Avenue in Collingswood You can read more of Patch's coverage of the plastic bag ban here, or by visiting https://bagupnj.com/.
