Although Global Recycling Day is celebrated on March 18th, we can celebrate the benefits of sustainability all year long. A great way to make a positive impact on the environment is to reduce, reuse and recycle.
Reduce
Limiting the amount of plastic we use can be a fantastic first step in forming good sustainability habits in our households.
Reuse
Instead of buying new items, considering repairing them. Plenty of items in our homes, from our phones to our clothes can be repurposed or repaired.
Recycle
Learning how to correctly recycle is equally as important as recycling. Make sure to clean and empty any items before placing them in your bins. Also, check with your hauler to confirm what goes in each bin as recycling can vary by city. And don’t forget to bring electronic waste and any hazardous household items to one of our Household Hazardous Waste Collection Centers for free and safe disposal.
