Recycling bins installed!

We're just waiting for the blue glass bins now.

The first week has been a huge success. The recyclables now greatly out measure the landfill refuse stream. It seems overwhelmingly cardboard and kraft (brown) paper. That was not at all expected, and is a delight to share. We still need to get food refuse out of the landfill bins and into the compost bins. That can improve sanitation.

It appears we need to change to weekly recycling emptying and every other week landfill. But for now it probably makes most sense to keep everything emptied weekly until we can gauge patterns.

Wouldn't that be a refreshing change?
