Recycling at home

Home recycling is one of the most important things we can do for the environment. Organizing recyclables between pick ups or drop offs can be challenging for both home-owners and renters. Most communities have a recycling program, so it is important to check the requirements in your area before deciding on the best Recycling Containers to fit your needs.

Home recycling is one of the most important things we can do for the environment. Organizing recyclables between pick ups or drop offs can be challenging for both home-owners and renters. Most communities have a recycling program, so it is important to check the requirements in your area before deciding on the best recycling containers to fit your needs.

Stackable recycling containers are a great option if limited space is available, and are perfect for pantries or garages. If newspapers, computer printouts, and other paper items are taking over your house, a Stak-N-Tie can make life easier. When full, the spaces underneath make it easy to tie the bundle, while the four handles make it easy to lift. Curbside Recycling containers are ideal for collecting recyclables both indoors and outdoors, and can go right to the curb for pick up. Available in sizes ranging from 14 gallons to 24 gallons and with options such as wheels, lids for keeping out rain, and brackets for hanging, they are a versatile choice for home owners or apartment dwellers.

Old paint, oven cleaners, pesticides and fertilizers are just a few of the household chemicals that can damage the environment. Check local regulations on how to dispose of these items. Many towns have special pick ups or drop off locations for these products. Ink cartridges and batteries should be collected for recycling. A Battery Recycling container is helpful for large families, and can serve as a visual reminder to keep batteries out of the trash.

A composting program can further reduce household waste. Kitchen compost containers are useful for collecting coffee grounds, egg shells, vegetable and fruit waste, and similar materials. Models with lids and filters can reduce odors and keep out pests. The Vermi-Composter is a good choice for home composting. Vermicomposting (which uses earthworms ordered online, from fishing bait shops, or from garden centers) creates a nutrient rich organic fertilizer and soil conditioner.

With a little bit of research and planning, your home recycling program will help to reduce the amount of waste making its way into landfills, and the right recycling containers will help streamline the process.
