Observing Proper Waste Disposal

Ever since we were living in an apartment back in California, we've always recycled our wastes. My husband always made sure we separate trash that can be recycled from the ones that cannot be. It was requisite in the place we lived in to do recycling, but even if it wasn't, we still would have done it anyway. It was a good thing that at the apartment complex, the city provided large recycling containers for everybody to dump their trash into, so we didn't have to provide one for ourselves. All we had to do was make sure we separate trash before dumping them. We both don't like the idea of mixing trash altogether because we both are aware of the harmful things those non-biodegradable wastes can do to the environment and the things that the biodegradable ones can still be used for.

Now that we're living in a house and in a place where they strictly observe recycling as well, we'll have to buy indoor and outdoor recycling bins to throw our trash in because when we moved here, the house we're renting didn't come with recycling bins at all. We're looking at buying two containers that we could put outside and probably two more inside the house. In that case, we don't have to constantly go outside to throw away trash if we have ones inside the house that we can just empty once they get full. It's more convenient that way.

Once we get the plastic containers for recycling that we need, it'll be so much easier on both of us to take the trash to the driveway every Wednesday where they get collected without having to worry about bags of trash getting ripped or boxes being blown away because we don't have proper containers to put them in. It will definitely save us time and less work to deal with.
