How To Organize Your Recycling at Home

If you are a family that recycles you know that it can be tough at times to keep all that junk organized before it is picked up. The team at Mr Junk in Canton, GA shares tips on:

How to Organize Your Recycling:

Recycle

  • Decide where the best place to keep your recycling is in your home. Some people like to use their kitchen and organize a cabinet or two to keep their recycling stored until it is picked up. While others prefer having it set up in the basement or garage for easier transport to the outside pick up.  Once you have made this decision you will just need to take a few more steps to get your recycling piles organized.
  • Separate Glass, Plastic, and Metal. Depending on your particular recycling service you will need to make sure you recycle certain items and not others. Check with your service to be sure you aren’t hanging on to something to recycle that they won’t accept. To keep things simple for your family label your bins accordingly.
  • Keep Paper and Cardboard stored separately as well. Most recycling places require you to sort your items like these so go ahead and get bins and label them for Paper and Cardboard.
  • If you have room in a closet or cabinet or even shelves keeping these things stored in one of those areas will keep the rest of your home feeling less cluttered. That way you won’t be tempted to give up on your recycling adventure just because it can be a big mess.

What do you do if you have large or small  items that can’t be recycled but need to be gotten rid of? Do you have an old sofa or refrigerator that is taking up valuable space in your garage or kitchen that could be used for your new recycling center in your home? If so give Mr Junk a call our team is ready to help you haul off any junk that you are ready to get rid of.

Easy Ways to Declutter Your Home

Stress less at home once you begin to declutter your home. In this post the team at Mr Junk shares some easy tips to help you declutter your home.

Clean out your closet: Each Spring and Fall take time to clear out your closet and change out the clothes according to the season. Be sure you either sell, donate or throw away the clothes that no longer fit, or that you haven’t worn or know you won’t wear again this year. Having a tidy closet will help reduce stress in trying to get ready for your next outing by making finding your next outfit a breeze.
Donate Basket: Create a basket that is for all your items to donate. Once it is full take it to the closet donation location in your town to keep from going through and pulling things out of your basket after a little time passes.

Typical advertising mail

Organized Mail System at Home: Create an easy in and out box like you would keep at an office, be sure to go through the mail and toss out the junk mail daily to keep the paper clutter from over flowing in your in box. You can make the box out of shoe boxes or baskets that you have around your home to keep cost down. Print your own labels and you will have an easy new mail system to keep bill time less stressful.
