From trash to cash, let’s collect and sell recycled items. From now on, stop throwing away your empty bottles, tins, old newspapers, and plastic wraps in the dustbin. Stop mixing them with other waste. Why is that?
These used items can bring you a fortune. You can recycle them and turn those trash into cash. Isn’t that sound interesting?
