Question by Cookiemobsta: How do you get new recycling bins for the home?
My parents only recycle paper because if they tried to recycle both paper and plastic/glass/aluminum, the one recycling bin they have would overflow. They said if I got them another recycling bin, they would recycle everything, but I don’t know where to get it. Can somebody help?

Check with the recycling centers. They might give you some.
What do you think? Answer below!
At my house, we don’t use plastic recycling bins. Instead, we get paper bags when grocery shopping. Then we use those for recycling bins and recycle the bags themselves.
Contact your local council and order additional bins (thia may come at a cost). Also a compost bin is very helpful for recycling food scraps that can be used on your garden. Also find out if your area has hard rubbish pick up. You should be able to offload garden cuttings to large items like chairs, tables, etc.
Home Depot will do the trick
I use a cheap rectangular laundry basket for newspapers. It’s the perfect size, it’s light and easy to clean, and the recyclers have no problem emptying it on pickup day.
You call your waste hauler. They give them out for free (whoever picks up your trash)
Try a place like home depot or target or walmart
