Thank you for the information. -
A billion years ago, when I was young, I think my mom was the first ever recycler! My brothers and I were skinny, and our pants kept falling down. We were poor and couldn't afford belts. Mom worked at the hospital and she would take used IV hoses, clean them out and braid them to make belts for my brothers and myself. Not very pretty, but they worked!

Can garden hoses be recycled?
-
What I do with my old hoses is to cut length of them and run a rope through the ends. Then I use the hose on tree branches that need to be tied up to the tree trunk, which I use a piece of hose on, also. This keeps the rope from cutting into the tree trunk and branches.

Most hoses can not be recycled because of how they are constructed.
