Garbage. Rubbish. Trash. Solid Waste. Junk. Refuse. That's what you might think when you see this picture--it's not pretty, but it's what goes into our landfills every day. This is just a snapshot from the Northern Transfer Station outside of Cooperstown today. Look closely and you'll see Freon cylinders, plastic and glass bottles (some returnable for 5 cents), cardboard, paper, aluminum cans, clothing, wood, food waste, and more. Remember to RECYLE, REUSE, COMPOST, and REPURPOSE your unwanted items. With just a little effort, we can all reduce our waste. My goal is to help clients avoid discarding items that can be reused or recycled.
