A certain amount of waste is almost inevitable in the course of your daily life. However, homeowners can take steps to promote a more sustainable community here in Gainesville, Florida. Here are some helpful tips from a recent article in the?Huffington Post to reduce your waste:
- Recycle all forms of paper including envelopes, newspaper and magazines.
- Recycle your paperboard products such as cereal boxes and tissue containers.
- Purchase items that use as little packaging as possible. Avoid single-serving items and purchase in large containers instead.
- Reuse items for creative craft projects instead of throwing them away.
- Keep food products out of the trash and use them for composting instead. Spruce up your green real estate in Central Florida with gardens thriving on composted materials.
- Sell or donate your electronics instead of throwing them in the trash. Even broken items can be salvaged by tech-minded individuals.
- Donate or sell clothing that you no longer want. Items that are damaged can be salvaged by Goodwill, who will reuse them for other purposes.
Alachua County has adopted a 75% recycling goal. The county is studying the feasibility of converting the transfer station into a recovery facility that would effectively recover organic products from the waste stream to be used at an organics recycling facility.
