Walmart Is Making Big Changes In Delaware This Week
This is just a friendly heads-up that your shopping trip this weekend might be a little different.
Walmart is celebrating Earth Day and Earth Day Weekend with a massive change to how you check out.
Single-use plastic bags will no longer be offered in Delaware Walmart stores.
“As of this week, Walmart stores in Delaware, Oregon, Washington, D.C., and Washington State will not offer single-use bags at the front-end or pickup. By eliminating single-use bags in a total of 10 states in the U.S. as well as Walmart Canada and Mexico, Walmart said it anticipates avoiding the use of almost 2 billion single-use plastic and paper bags every year” Chain Storage reports.
This means that you will need to bring your own bags in you plan to shop at Walmart in the future.

Walmart will also be giving pick-up customers the ability to opt out of using single-use plastic bags. This initiative will hopefully be in place across the country by the end of the year Walmart says.
Walmart will also be offering sustainability in other ways.
The retail giant will also be offering professionally inspected, tested and cleaned restored items. The program is called Walmart Restored and these items will be available at a very discounted price.
There will also be options for member of the Walmart+ program. Customers will be able to receive their shipped items in returnable and reusable shipping packaging.
