Refresh The Way You Recycle!As you wrap up the spring cleaning season, why not take the opportunity to refresh your recycling routine as well?! Here are some simple steps to make it easier for everyone in your home to recycle the right way: •Get two containers: Set them up side by side and label one for trash and one for recycling. Remember to only line your trash container with a plastic bag, your recycling container doesn’t need one.
•Place labeled containers throughout your home: The more containers throughout your home, the more likely you will be to use them! Don’t forget to place containers in your kitchen, bathroom, garage and office!
For more information, visit RecycleOftenRecycleRight.com
No plastic bags. Put items directly into your recycling container.
