Throwing out the Trash

['andersom']

  I am filling trash and recycling bags this weekend.  I love taking out the trash! 

Hey, don't call me trash.

Now I feel jealous, CBC never took me out for a weekend.

We seem to have more in the recycling bin than we do in the trash these days

My problem with recycling is; why should someone else make money off my trash.

Shouldnt there be a place where I can get cash for my trash?

The asshole at the recycling place takes more than half the money when my money trades her recyclables to him. When the owner is there, she gets a lot more money. Theif. She is going to tell her when she is back from her vacation. She refuses to turn in anymore stuff unless she is the one doing it.

So, there are places to get cash for your trash?

Yes if it is recyclable. It is better to smash the cans and bottles to make more room.

Wish there was somewhere to haul the plastic and glass around here, especially the plastic.    But there isn't, not local anyways...and we don't have curbside recycling here...in the next town over, not here.

Basically with trash I ask myself these questions as I am cruising the curbs before pickup...can I use it, can I scrap it, can I sell it, can I sell parts off of it?

It is recycling pick up here early tomorrow morning as well as the regular bin but I won't take the bins out until tonight when it is dark. Should be cool enough by then.

I just put out the trash and recycling.  In Connecticut there is a five cent deposit on all water, carbonated beverages, and beer  so no smashing cans and bottles  here we turn them back in.  When I was very young the scrap yard bought newspaper and rags, I remember going in the station wagon loaded with newspapers with my mother and my brother.  I seem to remember that there was a place to take the glass also but we never did.

We have a 25 ct deposit on most big plastic beverage bottles here, and a deposit on some beer-bottles and crates. There are ideas to stop that though. Don't think that it is smart to stop that, now lots of plastic is being brought back, also because kids like to earn some money, when doing that.

According to Wikipedia, that deposit stops next year.

Some US states charge five or ten cent deposit, but it's uncommon.

  I have hardly any trash to throw away this week, nowhere near enough to fill even a small bag.

Your frugality must be paying off.
