We give the cans to the church for money raised there, then the clear glass and newspapers are collected a few times a year.

What else can I do to recycle?

I would like to recycle my newspapers and bottles, but there are virtually no recycling things of any kind within a mile of my flat. Do you think cities are contradicting themselves in that way?

If I am using a fireplace to help heat my house…is it better to burn paper rather than recycle in lieu of turning on my oil based heater?

Is there a better way to split up things and where can I recycle glass, plastic ect?
Do all recyclable items have the recyclable sign on them, or just most of them?

I don’t have a car, so I was wondering what services there are available other than the bin man and the lorry that takes away my newspapers etc?

Those things are recycled in my area.

As a home owner I tend to look at the price tag and also ways to save money. I even tend to buy degradable trans-bags to help the garbage in my area since the bags I have used will take 1,000 of years to degrade due to the plastic used.

I make sure the lights are off when I leave and I have the temperature at a setting I can handle. What else can I do to save money and the environment at the same time. Am I missing something?
We currently don’t have a recycling company to pick up anything but clear plastic at this time.

I am located in Kansas-
