We\u2019ve entered the second part of the year [since July 2] but the temperatures don\u2019t seem to be dropping! That\u2019s bad news for your bins, with more unwelcome noxious smells filling our nostrils &amp; interiors stained from simmering liquids and debris. The heat doesn\u2019t help much with inspiring us to get up and empty our bins as often. The only tried and tested solution we could find was to divide and conquer, and by that we mean recycling.<\/p>\n<p>Waste segregation is not only good for the planet [less waste dumped in landfills and more materials reused in manufacturing] but it also benefits our noses! Separating packaging from general &amp; organic waste is a great way to keep track of what can stay in your kitchen bin or what needs to go immediately! Let\u2019s say for example, you\u2019ve got two bins, one for organic waste (animal or plant) and one for recycling materials (plastic, cardboard, glass). Suppose your recycling bin (which doesn\u2019t smell as much and isn\u2019t trapping any organic material) isn\u2019t filling up nearly as fast as your general waste bin, it can stay in your kitchen until bin collection day. Whereas your general waste bin filling up faster would be emptied more regularly, to avoid odours and flies.<\/p>\n<p>So, for this month\u2019s blog post, we\u2019ll be highlighting our top and most recent recycling bins!<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: right;\">Plastic Recycling Bin<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.direct2u.co.uk\/wheelie-bins\/recycling-bins.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-861 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/direct2u.co.uk\/blog\/wheelie-bins\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/07\/recycling-bins-03.jpg\" alt=\"Recycling Plastic Bins\" width=\"1000\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/direct2u.co.uk\/blog\/wheelie-bins\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/07\/recycling-bins-03.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/direct2u.co.uk\/blog\/wheelie-bins\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/07\/recycling-bins-03-300x60.jpg 300w, https:\/\/direct2u.co.uk\/blog\/wheelie-bins\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/07\/recycling-bins-03-768x154.jpg 768w, https:\/\/direct2u.co.uk\/blog\/wheelie-bins\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/07\/recycling-bins-03-980x196.jpg 980w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our assembled-in-3-steps, colourful open bins minimise the number of spills with its funnel lid design.
