Our kerbside recycling collects plastic bottles but won’t take any other plastics. We recycle or compost almost all other waste and we collect our plastic packaging - films, food containers, yoghurt pots, blister packs, etc. Anybody know how and where I can recycle this stuff because my garage is filling up with it!

We recycle or compost almost all other waste and we collect our plastic packaging - films, food containers, yoghurt pots, blister packs, etc. Anybody know how and where I can recycle this stuff because my garage is filling up with it! I have researched the available channels extensively and have asked my local authority what to do with these plastics but they say that they simply cannot recycle them at present.

I live in England and am looking for a solution that is available here in UK.

I’m trying to get my school to hold a freecycle-esqe event where everyone brings junk/things they don’t want or use, and gives them away for free to anyone who will use the stuff. The rest would end up going to goodwill. It’s a great idea in my mind, because it emphasizes the reuse part of “reduce, reuse, recycle”. But what could I say that would draw participants to the event? free stuff and getting rid of stuff they don’t want, sure, but anything else?

*k* Øn? asked:


on my windows vista, whenever i put something in the recycle bin, there should be a picture of trash in the bin, but the image stays empty. so whenever it shows the icon where there is trash in the bin and empty the bin, the icon doesn’t change. it still shows the pic of trash in the bin. how do i change this?

You know those containers that blueberries, some greens, and grapes come in? They’re plastic clamshells…how do I properly recycle them? I have tons of them and want to find the most efficient way to get them recycled.
There are so many good answers I don’t know who to choose as the best answer. I will definitely use some of them for seedling containers and some of them to bring to the farmer’s market. Thank you!

My town doesn’t have a recycling program, but I would like to recycle pop cans to make a little money. I know it doesn’t make much, but it’s better than wasting the aluminum. Anyone know if there’s somewhere I can send the pop cans to or a website I could check out? Thanks

Lydia asked:


I usually use the plastic bags from grocery store as trash bags. It used to be my way of justifying the ‘reuse’ part of ‘Reduce, Reuse and Recycle’ they taught us in school. Now I know that plastic bags never really decompose, I don’t want to use them anymore. What are my options for holding (for lack of better word) my trash?
