Whats your favorite recycling bin?  

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
I want to set up a recycling area in my kitchen. I have about 3 ft of unused space to put some bins or can or something in. I would like to seperate paper, plastic, Aluminum and glass. my recycling just ends up on the floor right now till it take it out of the house. I want something that looks a little neater. What are your favorite solutions for storing your recycling?

The ones the town gives us for free. We have one for paper and one for glass/plastic/tin. I keep them outside our back door.

I use cardboard boxes and then recycle them when they start to fall apart. But mine is under the sink so it doesn't have to be pretty. You might be able to pick up some affordable metal bins somewhere, maybe even just salvage them from someone who is throwing stuff out.

my parents made me a nice one for outside......I guess it could go inside on the kitchen floor.

It is primarily 13 gallon trash cans (you could change the size if you wanted...but I tend to fill those up in a week....so smaller is not an option for me)
But so they asked me the number of bins I needed and then they took small (about and inch in diameter) pvc pipe and made a holder for them. It is hard to explain, but it is really cool.......it helps my cans survive the storms we get...so they do not blow over.
