Their bins here aren't huge though, so you wouldn't want to collect up TOO much before visiting.Pixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06448514859660695630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073655496261535591.post-10736902354179161642012-08-09T17:18:12.683-04:002012-08-09T17:18:12.683-04:00Wow I can't imagine a town that doesn't ha...Wow I can't imagine a town that doesn't have recycling! <br /><br />Our old town in MA required recycling, if you didn't put out the recycling bin with items in it, they wouldn't pick up your trash. (granted they didn't check your trash but its a start).<br /><br />Our current town in NH is all about recycling. We don't have a dump but a transfer station. The town pays for someone to take our trash, but they pay us for our recycles. So it cost the town less the better we recycle. <br /><br />They could still better at promoting it though.<br /><br />We can put all our recycles in one container so we have a pull out converted cabinet that has a trash bin and 2 recycle bins. When they are full, they get dumped into a larger trash can or another bin in the garage for recycles. Then eventually they get hauled off to the transfer station. <br /><br />My SIL is in a town that recycles but her condo association does not. And the town won't stop their to pick up. Not sure what options she has looked into but currently she brings her recycles to her MIL house that she goes to every weekend for daycare reasons. So its not too weird asking family for recycling help!Pixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06448514859660695630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073655496261535591.post-15412756935044114302012-08-09T13:21:22.047-04:002012-08-09T13:21:22.047-04:00You may already know this and I missed it, but som...You may already know this and I missed it, but something that pared down our plastics recycling bin was knowing what numbers of plastics our area couldn't/wouldn't accept.our area only accepts #1 and #2 plastics, so any others are unfortunately garbage. :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073655496261535591.post-3067285789082575172012-08-09T13:13:45.409-04:002012-08-09T13:13:45.409-04:00Not sure where in Michigan you are but if you are ...Not sure where in Michigan you are but if you are in holland or grand rapids the Treehuggers store accepts most recyclables and random items like toothbrushes etcLauraJoGranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16615546590526823638noreply@blogger.com
