Question 1

How can you reduce packaging waste?

Accepted Answer

•

One of the best ways to reduce packaging waste is to purchase materials that are made using recycled materials. While these don’t eliminate waste, they do help provide uses for old packaging materials and prevent the need to collect more raw ingredients for continued manufacturing. Recycling those same products helps complete the cycle and reduces the need for new materials in the supply chain. You can also upcycle some packing materials, like cardboard and plastic, for use in crafts and organizational tools.

Question 2

What is the cheapest way to haul away junk?

Accepted Answer

•

The most cost-effective way to haul junk is to load it into a truck and take it to your local waste disposal facility yourself. If you don’t have the proper vehicle, consider renting a dumpster and filling it yourself; the dumpster rental company will remove it once it is full. Junk removal services are typically the most expensive way to haul away junk, but also the most time-efficient method that requires the least manual labor from you.

You can only take your grill to the dump in some circumstances. Some landfills won’t accept grills due to their size, electronic parts, fire risk, or other reasons. Those that do may charge a fee. Call ahead for information to find out if your local dump will accept your old grill. They may instruct you to take your grill to a specific bulk drop-off location or event in your community instead.
