Use cotton bags or a trolley for your groceries. Ensure you take them out each time to use when shopping. It helps to reduce the amount of plastic going into landfill.

The majority of your household waste, i.e; veg peelings, teabags, dust can be composted. Placed in a purpose built bin in a sunny spot, the waste breaks down over several weeks/months & can be reused in the garden to help grow flowers etc.

Shop carefully. Avoid excess packaging. If you have a kerbside collection scheme the extra packaging e.g; boxes, plastic, paper bags, bottles etc. can be placed in there for a weekly/fortnightly collection by the council. The materials are then broken down & reused.

Replace a mobile phone only when you need to. There are several charities who will take mobiles & empty printer cartridges to recycle. Many stores will also take old phones in for recycling.

Brighten up old clothes by adding sequins, ribbon etc. or changing the hemline. If they are in reasonable condition but you no longer require them, there are always charity shops, TRADE boxes & clothing collections who can reuse them.

Hope this is of some use.
 
what do u mean recycle ideas?? b more specific in that question.
but litterally recycle. reycyling is basically reusing things that can b reused and not using things unless they absolutly must b used. for example, at the store have ur own bag (that u use every time) to put the groceries in. that way u dont support the bag making and all the bags end up in the land fill when they culdve been reused. and if u forgot the reuseable bag for the market, then use those bags but use as littl as u can. then there shuld b a bag recycling station at the market so they can recycle it too.

like u can use it before u put it in recycling. like yesterday my dad went to the supermarket and came back with a bunch of bags that the food was in. and me and my sis reused them to put trash in. we went to the creek near my house (ther was a lot of trash) and picked up all the trash and put it in the trash bags
then we recycled what we culd otta the trash. then we cept the bags. then we biked back to the store and put those bags in the recycling! so ya....

woa......i wrote a lot lol
i had no clu what u were askin for so i just put random stuff in there lol hope it helps!
 
What for? We have more "recycled" rubbish lying about than we know what to do with already. Landfill is the answer!
