Storing your recycling in the home
It is a good idea to have a few different plastic bins in the garage to store the four major types of recyclable material. The four major items are for glass, plastics, metals and paper. This helps the family know where to place these items.
Once the items fill up, you can either take them a recycling center or if your local waste company provides bi-weekly pickup, you can then place your items in the special trash can for pick up. Here is a video from For Dummies.
