ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for bailing newspapers so that they can be easily transported for recycling is disclosed. A paper bag is provided which has an interior volume adapted to receive a stack of newspapers through its normally open end. The bag includes mirror image juxtaposed patterns of slits on opposite sides of the bag near the open end. Each pattern of slits includes a first generally transverse slit adapted to define a handle element. A pair of slits depend from proximate the first transverse slit to define a flap element in which the tip is narrower than the base. A second transverse slit is located at the base of the flap element to define a slot. The flap elements on opposite sides of the bag are adapted to fold over the stack of newspapers within the bag and each other, and the upper ends of each flap element are adapted to fit into the slot of the other respective element, to encapsulate the newspapers in the bag. The newspapers can thus be easily transported by grasping the handle elements of the bag.
