Recently we found out about a recycling center near my work
that recycles everything. It's the best recycling center we've ever
seen. You name it, they take it....even automobiles!
In the town where we live, they do recycling pick up but not
at our location in the trailer park, because this is separate from
the city's pick up region. The trailer park only takes trash and
has no room to set up a recycling center. My wife and I decided to
take on the task ourselves. We went out and purchased some large
garbage cans and large clear plastic bags. Then we labeled each
trash can for plastic, paper, cardboard, glass, aluminum cans,
phone books and a section for tires and other items. We told our
neighbors about what we're doing and the news spread around. We are
now the recyling center for our trailer park. We are so pleased
from the results of our neighbors wanting to help out and making a
difference to our environment. Whenever a container is full, we
take it to the main recycling center by my work. With all the
aluminum cans, we can obtain cash for them and expand our recycling
center by getting more garbage cans and bags so we don't have to
use our own money. It's a great feeling to know that others like us
care about the same things. And we even made new friends in our
trailer park by doing this.
