Recycle It!
Don’t think you have enough for a recycle bin? Think again! There are a lot more items you can put in your blue container than you think. Don’t know what to do with all that junk mail? Throw it in the blue can. Have you moved past the ‘80’s hairdo and no longer need a ton of hairspray? Throw that plastic hairspray container (#1 or #2 only) in the blue bin.
