There is currently no curbside recycling center where we live since we live outside any city limits so in order to recycle, we have to take everything to town. DH is still skeptical that people will recycle if it causes any kind of inconvenience to them. He went with me to drop off our recyclables and was surprised that the place was hopping! The parking lot was full and there were people coming in and out with their bins of recyclables.
Here is a list of items that can usually be taken at a recycling center.
Paper: Office paper, junk mail, shredded paper, paper egg cartons, paper cereal boxes, cardboard
Plastics: It depends, but often plastics marked 1-7 can be recycled.
Glass: Clear, brown, and green glass
Metals: Aluminum cans and tin cans
I set up bins in my garage and make the trip to the recycling center when the bins fill up. It’s really pretty simple!
