Landfill ... Recycling ... Clutter ... and Charity Shops ...

Our council is not quite on par with other councils ... and what you can actually recycle is very limited, still. This is another clutter issue ... space to line up the bottles, cans, paper, plastic, compost, and garden waste sometimes all separately, as can happen with my family and friends elsewhere in the country. 

For now the limitations suit me with our council; but not for the land. 

We have a small paper, cardboard, glass, can and clothes, shoes recycle bank, just a hop, skip and a jump away from where I live. That is another reason to go out for a walk out via this recycle area ... I attempt to clear as I go...  in the one touch rule that used to be ... before we were neglected.

Other ways of getting rid of the normal rituals of everyday life of new cars, white goods and other items particularly with a growing family ... but again excess clutter ... it is too overwhelming ...

I am not for making money over the web or other means as yet ... dollar signs do not ping in my eyes, or way of life. Again, time constraints in a cluttery life. And coming to pick up the goods with limited social skills. All this options I have attempted, or tried to research. It is too much faffing about with the volume here. Especially with the re-structuring of routines etc, 

Thank goodness for Charity Shops ... or people in need of things ...


This is the simple option for me, presently ... it is a case of filling up my shopping trolley, or a bag and taking on a journey out ... no fuss ... no transactions ... 

It is amazing what you can off load for them to make money or use ... I am not going into the bad name of all the money not always going where it should ... My philosophy has been if it makes other people happy for that moment ... whether the items are selected by whoever, before sorting and coding for sell ... or for the office supplies ... it has fulfilled a use ... rather than the landfill  ...
