I walked around in this alley and had a look inside all of the trash cans.
The majority were for recyclables, but the ones that were trash, were mostly organic materials… this is going to be the case if you don’t compost.
Notice how much of a mess this alley is? It smelled pretty rank, too.
Not that I care it smells, but the smells could be completely avoided by adding a trash can of another kind used for compost.
This alley is one block from a public park full of leaves and dead plants (cover materials). Get creative and divert your organics…I promise you it isn’t hard, and the rewards are beyond satisfying.
