Wouldn't it be really nice if recycle receptacles could be placed at the respective neighborhood mailboxes? Same for receptacles at the softball fields for those discarded plastic bottles of water, Gatorade, etc.
Our neighbors in our area of St James appear to be decent recyclers also  |
I agree, as others have mentioned as well, it would be nice to have recycling bins at the post offices. And if I recall, there is a recycling committee that brought up that idea with The villages. I think the problem they ran into was, they're afraid the bins would end up with dog poop in them. There was a previous thread about dog poop in the regular trash receptacles. I was thinking that if they took away the trash receptacles, there would be no place for people to dispose of the dog poop, and people would have to take their junk mail home with them too. Maybe we'd kill 2 birds with one stone. We'd get rid of the smelly trash bins, and people might be encouraged, in a round about way, to recycle their junk mail. Just a thought.
