I just put all my recycling in 8 gallon tubs with lids, that go in my Toyota Echo in the trunk.
However, while I am running around recycling and using reusable bags etc, etc. etc.,
I work for a store in Hilo that throws away so..................................much plastic, hard plastic.
No recycling.
Today, 2 giant plastic kayaks were cut up and dumped into the dumpster.
It really boggles my mind.
Anything returned is destroyed and put into the the dumpster.
Where is all the stuff going after it leaves the dumpster?
If it is on our island it is going to fill up soon.
Anyway, not to sure about burlap. It would make a nice home for rats and cockroaches.
