Plastic Bags with recycle numbers

I know soon plastic bags themselves will be phased out from all stores, larger first then small, before the end of the year and these bags wear a recycle triangle. But also increasingly companies are shipping goods with the plastic air filled bags to protect the shipped products (like amazon) which also sport the cool recycling triangle. My question is what is the city policy on the shipping bags and other plastic like bags (paper towel,toilet paper) that are sporting the recycling triangles - can we just throw them in the recycling bin with everything else? I did use The Waste Wizard but it seemed to generalize the plastic bags and not include the number icons; I feel like if it has a recycle icon I want to be able to put it somewhere other than the trash.
