Are old balloons recyclable?

Old balloons are generally not recyclable because they are made from materials like latex or Mylar that are not accepted by most recycling facilities. While latex balloons can biodegrade over time, they can still pose environmental hazards if not disposed of properly.

It's best to dispose of old balloons in the trash or explore composting options for biodegradable latex balloons.

How many balloons fit in a garbage bag?

The number of balloons that can fit in a garbage bag depends on the size of the balloons and the size of the garbage bag. To calculate the maximum number of balloons that can fit, you would need to measure the volume of a single balloon and the volume of the garbage bag, then divide the volume of the garbage bag by the volume of a single balloon. This would give you an estimate of the maximum number of balloons that can fit in the garbage bag.


Can same type of balloons withstand the same amount of pressure?
