The first in this series will look at managing your Recycling.
The council have insisted that we recycle our rubbish, the Government says we have to save the planet, so what have they done to help? Well nothing really, so I have had a quick peek around the web to find things that can help you with your recycling.
We’ll go in for the low priced item first, so what could I buy for £50?
I have gone for a Silver Mesh Rolling Storage Bin. A great item for putting your recycling away, a nice size, so not too intrusive, stylish and on wheels for moving around easily. A great item and costing only £32 means I’ve got some change from my £50 – result!
The mid priced item I have found is a 30 litre twin stainless steel recycling bin. This little beauty is ideally sized for a flat or small household. With two compartments you can recycle as you go, saving you time sorting it out for bin day! It’s price is short of my £100 budget at just £89.
Just as stylish in stainless steel design my upper priced product to aid with recycling is priced at £193. It’s a bigger version of the 30 litre bin above. The 60 litre twin tall stainless steel recycling bin is also a twin compartment bin, however is much roomier so would be ideal in a larger household.The two compartments are colour coded with the pedals to help you when it comes to sorting your rubbish into the right part.
All these items are available from All Up and On at the prices stated at the time of print.
