In Maplewood, the instructions for recycling say no plastic bags, even though the bags do have recycling numbers on them. I can't speak for South Orange, but I suspect similar.LL_ said:
Can't they be put in with our single stream recycling ? ( I also recycle then as trashbags for kitty poop and doogie do.)

This is actually why I only like the canvas ones, because they are washable.CaltoNJ said:
Related question - how do you wash your reusable shopping bags? Not the fabric ones which I can just toss in the washer - the the plastic ones like Trader Joe's.

There should be a tax/surcharge on every plastic bag a store dispenses to encourage re-use.

In Austin, Texas (and no doubt other places) you have to pay for bags at the stores. (Something like 25 cents.)
