Recycle This

milk cartons

I hate throwing things away. I keep all kinds of bits and pieces and I'm scared of becoming a hoarder. I have huge collections of light bulbs, bottle caps, corks, the plastic fish that soya sauce comes in, envelopes and magazines. Finally, there's a website to help recycle these hoarded treasures.

How Can I Recycle This? is a website where readers write in to ask for suggestions on recycling and reusing items they have acquired, everything from milk cartons to USB memory sticks, and the members of the site give their ideas, tips and suggestions for repurposing the items.

Definitely worth checking out if you have a cupboard full of knick-knacks. Nothing but good green fun!
