I recycle everything that I can. I have 4 good sized totes for recycling. Sometimes it piles up, and I don't want to take it in, but then I do anyways,because it's not that hard. My garbage that I put out each week is greatly reduced. It used to be 2-4 bags, now it's usually 1, maybe 2 with garbagefrom the bathrooms.
We have 2 sites to recycle in my town of 40,000 people. It's got everything, cardboard, paper, plastic, glass, cans. Makes it wonderful.
Hell, I even started composting stuff. I have my big compost ball outside, my raw food bucket that I put food waste into until I take it out to the ball.Hopefully it'll turn into great compost for my girls flower beds this spring/summer.
