Is there a service that can recycle disposable diapers?
There are gDiapers which are a combination of cloth and disposable diaper. They consist of a cotton outer pant with a snap in waterproof liner (both are washable and reusable) and then you stick a disposable pad into the liner. When the diaper is soiled you take out the pad and either flush it, compost it or toss it. The pads contain no chlorine and no plastic and will decompose in 50-150 days, unlike the standard disposable which are pegged at taking 500 years to degrade! I cloth diaper full time at home and use the gDiapers for outings. They work well, but I really do prefer cloth diapers. I would recommend trying a Starter Pack, it is a good deal, you get two pairs of the pants, 4 liners, a swish stick (to aid with the flushing process) and 10 disposable pads. The package is less than buying two sets of the pants by themselves, so I think it is worth the try! If you don’t like them there is a high demand for the pants among cloth diapering mamas so I am sure you can find someone to
