What makes film sellable?
Clear, dry film kept separate from other plastics, without labels, paper, tape, strapping or food. Many sites bale film in the same baler as cardboard on separate cycles; keep the bales separate and labelled.
How is it priced?
By weight, often a flat price per pound or ton reviewed periodically, because there is no film index as widely cited as the OCC index. The calculator's flat-price option works for film; set the material to stretch film.

Questions
- Can I bale stretch film with cardboard?
- In the same baler on separate cycles, yes; in the same bale, no. Mixed bales fail both specifications.
