Reddit mentions: The best in-home recycling bins

We used china plates, real silverware, and mason jars (for water) for our dinner. We used these forks and these plates for cocktail hour. We used the plates as bread/salad plates during dinner and to serve dessert as well.

We also used these cups for our wine and specialty cocktail.

Bonus: we got these garbage bins that made it super easy for people to put something in recycling vs normal garbage. They also looked A LOT nicer than the white cardboard garbage, and were recyclable themselves.

All were a hit!

The smell instinct is real lol

I’ll give my boy card board boxes just because he likes to tear them apart and won’t eat them.

I had to get this garbage/recycling can. He figured out how to lift the lid on my old one. He chewed the peddles because he knew they did SOMETHING but didn’t quite figure out how they work.

I found the best way to battle him getting in the trash was making sure he had no ways of getting into the trash. Also he doesn’t eat the cardboard so I know if I have time to clean he gets it as a reward. The only time he shows interest in it now is when I throw meat scraps in there.

These stackable bins hold 50-55 lbs of grain perfectly, although if you go to Home Depot I think you can get them a tad cheaper. I've got four of these for base grains, and use sealable buckets for my specialties.

Does anyone know of a good small, 3-part trash bin (compost recycle trash)? I want one for our bathroom but the smallest one I can find on Amazon here is still quite long/large.

We use some gorilla racks with a bunch of bins like this.

We have something like this for trash and recycling and compost either bagged and in the freezer or in a container on the kitchen counter.

On the off chance this isn't some nearly Grade-A trolling (longtime btard and /pol/ack) why don't you read this again:


>First it was a couch that did not fit in my apt so the movers had to bring it to the sidewalk. I receiving a stern text from my super threatening fines etc, which I understand.

>Then I mindlessly threw a box with some garbage in it in the recycling bin. He then proceeded to send me a picture of the garbage, threaten fines, asked me to fix it etc. which I understand.

>Since these kind of incidents I decided to just throw all my garbage in one bag and dumb it in the garbage bin.

^ get that

Use black trashbags with the black one.

Use blue or white trashbags with the blue half.

These are available at every K mart, Target, Home Depot, bodega, ever- - just in case the difference between blue plastic and black plastic is hard to see, you know?

Put garbage/trash/nonrecyclables in the black one.

Put recyclable stuff in the blue one. Plastic and glass bottles, take out containers that are plastic and not paper - - that stuff goes in the blue one.


When the bags are full, put the garbage in the garbage bins outside your building.

Put the recycling in the recycling bins.


You can do it, buddy!
