My declutter extravaganza continues, and of course I suffer from Green Guilt. In order to keep stuff out of the trash, here are some more local recycling tips--the hangers one is new to me. Guilt-free feng-shui!
Gobs of Wire Hangers Should Go to the Cleaners
Got a bunch of wire hangers you don't need? Don't trash them! Austin dry cleaners will take them and recycle them. Who knew?
Electronics Clutter
My older tip: If you have electronic trash, i.e. dead laptop and cell phone batteries, old Earthlink CDs, CD cases, cords, etc., your local Best Buy has a recycle drop near the entrance.
Regular household batteries need to go to the Hazardous Waste center, the same place you take paint and other chemicals. See http://www.austintexas.gov/department/austin-resource-recovery for more recycling info. (Doesn't resource recovery sound like a rehab center?)
