Reusing those old Nalgenes

Wednesday, April 30, 2008 around 7 pm mountain time

If you’ve been following the news surrounding the Bisphenol A chemical used to make popular plastic bottles, such as Nalgene, I’m sure by now you’ve upgraded — or thought about upgrading — to a BPA-free Nalgene or SIGG. But what to do with a pile of old, potentially-dangerous Nalgenes? Here are a few great tips from a friend’s company, Tuxedo Ranch:

  1. Use them to store loose change.
  2. Drill holes in the red bottles and use as hummingbird feeders.
  3. Fill with dirt and plant flowers or use as a vase.
  4. Store nails, screws, and more.
  5. Recycle. Many recycling centers now accept these #7 plastics.
