Located in: Yard & Landscaping, Backyard Birding, Birdfeeders

These virtually indestructible birdfeeders are a smart investment — especially since they’re so green! Made from recycled water bottles, milk jugs, and other disposable plastic containers, they won’t splinter, chip, rot, rust, or stain, and are easy to clean. The Platform Feeder attracts the widest variety of birds, and its coated metal-screen base helps keep seed dry. The Hopper Feeder has clear sides so you can see at a glance when it’s time to refill. Its roof with built-in hanger lifts off for easy refilling, and the sloped base helps keep seeds fresh and dry.

Versatile, affordable birdfeeders for your yard

Both models are easy to fill, and keep seed dry

Made from recycled plastic

Comments about Recycled Plastic Birdfeeders:

I am very pleased with the recycled plastic birdfeeders. I ordered 2 since they were drastically reduced. I love everything about them except the wire to hang them is so short I can barely get the tops out of the way to fill them.

I would order this product again.

Comments about Recycled Plastic Birdfeeders:

I tried to order both the platform and the hopper feeders, but the platform-feeder was out of stock and I just got the hopper-feeder. I have four feeders on a pole feeding station in my backyard, but the hopper-feeder seems to be the favorite of most birds that visit my station. I love watching the birds feed several times a day.

Good price

Comments about Recycled Plastic Birdfeeders:

I'd been eyeing a similar product at a local specialty store, but didn't want to invest that much. These are a little smaller than I was thinking (my fault), but work fine. I especially like that they use recycled products and will be far easier to clean than any other feeders I own.

This is so much easier to clean than the tube feeders, plus the larger birds can use it too. I bought 2 - one for the front yard and one for the back!

Would buy again.

What I like most about this feeder is the fact that the seeds don't get wet from the rain. The wire could be a little better quality.

Comments about Recycled Plastic Birdfeeders:

this is a nice sturdy feeder that has attracted a lot of birds as soon as i set it up. the only con i have is that when filling, the lid is somewhat restricted by the cables that run though the lid and you have a narrow opening to put seed into the feeder

Platform Feeder

Comments about Recycled Plastic Birdfeeders:

Where I hang it the squirrels haven't yet found a way to get to the seeds. I've had morning doves, cardinals, junkos, titmice, nuthatches, sparrows and a woodpecker take seed from the feeder. In high winds it does sway a lot which may scare the birds but otherwise it is up to my expectations.
