From Trash To Cash, Let’s Collect And Sell Recycled Items

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?

Let’s apply the 3Rs

Since we were children, we have been taught about 3R. To refresh your mind, 3R is Reuse, Reduce, and Recycle.

1) Reduce food waste. 

2) Buy food only when you need to

3) Apply FIFO (First in, First Out) to prevent food waste

4) Reduce the use of plastic bags. Bring your food container to reduce the use of polystyrene

5) Reduce the use of paper. Use both sides of the paper

Recycle

1) Separate the items that can be recycled

2) Collect recyclables at a recycling center or in a bin

So, what are you waiting for? Gather your bottles, papers, and plastics and take them to the recycling center, and redeem your prize! Turn your trash into cash! With this method, people would surely start to enjoy recycling, and at the same time, they are saving the planet.
