Why wait? I follow the 3 R's of recycling, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. This is actually not a new concept and can be traced to Plato in 400 B.C. Anyhow enough history, what I do is "recycle" the wire hangers and take them back to the dry cleaners so they can "reuse" them over and over again. Trust me, they appreciate that. If enough of us did that, I'm willing to bet they'd consider using more eco-friendly hangers and cleaners/chemicals.
