I Like Recycling

Now I'm a fan of recycling but our new Council recycling scheme means we have 5 separate Bins! It's crazy.

My bins go out more than I do these days.

Well at least you're doing it! But yeah I'm a big fan of our one huge throw it all in roll it down to the curb receptacle. It makes it easier.♻

@Bean17: i get that but I do worry about landfill. I suppose we'll get on with it. It does certainly get you thinking about your food waste though. Now I need to get out more. Here I am talking about rubbish..

Yeah I throw everything in--glass, paper, aluminum, everything and roll it down to the curb for curbside recycling to pick up. Our trash can rarely ever has anything in it every week because it's all in the recycling bin. Oh and we compost our food scraps.😊@Ironicman:

@Bean17: we have to separate food scraps, paper, plastic, tin/glass, non recyclables, garden waste into separate Bins. If not in correct bins they won't take it!!

Yes I remember those separate bins days. It wasn't as easy, but it sounds like there is progress where you live overall so that's good. Hopefully it will become routine, even with the extra hassle. It chaps my hide when people don't even try. Lol@Ironicman:
