Recycling can usually take a bit of creativity and lateral thinking. But in case you don't have a Depression/WWII era granny to get suggestions for reusing items from, then attempt these to begin you off: * Pizza boxes (for large pizzas) are the ideal size for fitting A4 papers and they stack together easily. Blot the grease out and use them as a filing program. They're straightforward to label, too. Cover them with newspaper or old wrapping paper in case you don't want the quantity of the local pizza joint staring you within the face. They stack much better than arch lever files. * Ice cream containers are perfect for freezing soups and casseroles for later use, and also for freezing a surplus of stewed fruit. They also are a thing of a staple at numerous schools for holding crayons as well as other large groups of bits (counters, rubber bands, milk tokens, drawing pins). One-liter yoghurt bottles have the exact same makes use of. * Thick cardboard of any type might be employed to guard CD (-ROMs) inside the post rather than bubble wrap. Maintain a tiny supply on hand, but don't hoard it - it can develop up to excess if you're not cautious.
