Home Recycling Center

Did you ever stop and think how much trash we produce in a day? a week? a year? Where does it all go? I'd like to think we're recycling as much as we can, but I bet there's probably more that we can do. I look at the bottom of every plastic container to see if it's what my local transfer station accepts. If it isn't, then I have to throw it in with the trash. Paper shopping bags full of newspapers from the last few months line the back wall in the dining room, waiting to be carted off. There are way too many to put out with the recyclables every other week. The Premium Home Recycling Center from Mode offers space for bottles and paper and also compacts cans and plastic bottles for extra storage room. The recycling center comes with nesting bins that make it easy to carry all your recyclables in one trip, and has a programmable reminder that lets you know when it's recycling day. The front loading paper bin holds newspapers and there is a slot on top where you can drop your mail. Recycling may seem like an extra step, but I think it's really worth it, especially knowing how much of what we consume can be reused in some way or another.
