Seaside Sustainability’s Shrink Wrap Recycling Program offers a free, eco-friendly solution for Cape Ann boaters to dispose of their shrink wrap responsibly. 

Running for the month of May, convenient recycling container at the DPW in Gloucester.

Boat owners are invited to drop off their shrink wrap during business hours free lumber and other debris for absolutely free.  

By diverting this plastic from landfills, the program helps reduce pollution and protects local marine environments, supporting Seaside’s broader mission to preserve oceans, wetlands, and estuaries.

 The program is open to all boat owners, no marina membership required. This initiative helps minimize waste and supports sustainability efforts by ensuring safe, practical recycling of shrink wrap, keeping our coastal ecosystems clean and healthy.  

Thank you to our sponsors, including Linda Rowe and everyone from the Goodies Fund, for making this program possible!
