\"organize<\/a><\/p>\n

With the best of intentions, it’s easy to get stuck when you are recycling.\u00a0 All of my clients recycle paper, plastic, glass and cardboard.\u00a0 They have one step of recycling all set, but other steps can foil their best intentions.\u00a0 Think about easy ways to organize your recycling in order to make recycling happen.<\/p>\n

First off, it’s important to know what to recycle!\u00a0 Here are some ideas thanks to Earth911<\/a>.\u00a0 Did you know that pizza boxes can’t be recycled because of grease?\u00a0 Check out what can and can’t be recycled.<\/p>\n

Let’s make recycling super easy!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Easy to access products<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Easy<\/a>

Make recycling easy with these stack-able totes. These totes can be placed just outside your back door to drop items in after rinsing.\u00a0 Generously sized, you can recycle a lot and then carry these to the curb or your car to complete this job.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Easy to drop off locations<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"easy<\/a><\/p>\n

Schools often have paper and cardboard recycling.\u00a0 Drive by and drop off paper once a week.\u00a0 Best Buy has drop off for electronics.\u00a0 In Houston we have Drop off Houston<\/a>, a free take-back program for electronics at over 30 locations city-wide.\u00a0 This includes televisions,fax machines, hard drives. computer monitors, DVD players and computers.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Easy to remember<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"recycling<\/a><\/p>\n

Set a reminder in your smartphone, write in red on\u00a0 your calendar, or add a note to your kid’s chore chart to keep your recycling routine going.\u00a0 It’s up to everyone in your family to help make recycling happen.<\/p>\n

When I was growing up, my dad and brother would recycle newspaper once a month together. It was a great way to share the responsibility and to talk about what is important. Set up team work in your family to make recycling a priority and a family value.\u00a0 It also lessens the load when you share the responsibility with many family members.<\/p>\n

I love that our city is focusing on recycling in all ways.\u00a0 Easy, convenient recycling<\/a> is available in Houston and Kingwood.<\/p>\n

I want to also thank Keep Kingwood Green<\/a> for their local initiatives too!<\/p>\n

How can you make organizing happen at your home or business?<\/p>\n
