We had our new
BLUE recycling container delivered yesterday. I was really excited because I am a geek. I was also happy becouse our collection of recyclable items was overflowing the bin inside! Through some creative uses of broken down cardboard boxes I was able to extend the can upwards another 2 feet, and even that was full. Anyway, when I got home from the Rec Center yesterday I saw this image and had to rush inside to get my camera.
You can see all of the new bins lined up all the way down the street! The reason I thought this was especially cool is that before these
BLUE cans were delivered I was the only one on this street that had a recycling can. Now everyone does! Just think of all of the recycling that will be going on on Westlake Ave!

that is a beautiful sight! I wish we had recycling... we live in an apartment complex which does not offer the blue bin. currently we have to drive our various recyclables to different spots in the valley...
I had to do that for a while, then I got so disappointed with the drop off points because people were just dumping regular trash in there. I's open up the paper bin and see somebody's leftover bucket of KFC with chicken bones and everything. I can't believe SLC is so far behind the times. I remember filling the recycling bin at my parents house when I was in high school in the mid 1990's! (am I seriously that old??!)
