  • Patent number: 5101984
    Abstract: A trash recycling apparatus that includes a series of individual trash bags suspended from a racks structure in a row configuration. Exposed side wall areas of the bags have special trash identifier markings that enable a person standing in front of the rack structure to select the appropriate bag for each trash item. The identifier markings are written at an angle to permit the use of relatively large size lettering. Also the markings are repeated at vertically spaced points along the bag length to ensure readability of the markings.
