Carrier Bags

Can I give back my carrier bags for recycling?

In certain areas you can hand your bags back for recycling - please check with your driver. Carrier bags that we take away are recycled back into carrier bags so they can be used again.

I am not happy with the amount of bags I have been given

In some areas we provide bag free delivery for most products, and in others we try to minimise the use of plastic bags. All bags we do use are recycled and you can hand your bags to our drivers for recycling, and the charge will be refunded on your final receipt.

Why do Morrisons charge for carrier bags?

Following the latest government mandate dated 21st September 2020, carrier bag charges have been reintroduced for online orders. In the areas that we deliver shopping in carrier bags, carrier bags are charged at 10p each. You can however hand your carrier bags back to the driver for recycling and the charge will be refunded on your final receipt.

What happens to the money I pay for carrier bags?

Proceeds raised from the in-store charge will be donated to good causes, with Morrisons Foundation being the primary recipient. We will be treating proceeds from the charge for our online customers slightly differently, using them to support our recycling incentive and invest in paper bags as a way to reduce our plastic usage.
