The Placement of Paper Recycling Bins
from:There certainly isn’t anyone that would discourage you from recycling in the home. Every household has its fair share of paper, metal, and glass recyclable items that can be sent to the recycling plant for new life. However, if you want to talk about places where the various types of paper recycling bins could come in handy, it has to be the workplace. Offices of every kind and size are the biggest contributors to the use of paper in its virgin or recycled state. It only makes sense to have a recycling system in place for your office or place of business. When you consider that over 40% of paper waste in this country comes from the workplace, it’s pretty clear that paper recycling is a great way of reducing paper waste. Keep these tips in mind to get the staff using paper recycling bins and even being happy about it.
Since we are already on the subject of recycling bins, one of the first things you will want to do to get started with an office wide paper recycling program is purchase some sturdy bins for the building. Luckily, paper recycling bins come in a huge variety of sizes and shapes so you can buy as many different styles as you need to meet the office’s needs. People are the same whether they are at home, work, or out enjoying their day. The more convenient things are made for them, the more likely they are to use them. This applies to the placement of recycling bins as well.
Choosing where to place your paper recycling bins is really a matter of common sense. You could try to place one everywhere a garbage can is located, but that will lead to some seriously congested areas in the office. A better course of attack might be to place paper recycling bins near the copy machine, the fax machine, and possibly near the supply closet or storage room. In addition to those handy locations, you could also make it a point to have one or two recycling bins centrally located for easy use. It might not seem important, but the placement of your bins could mean the difference between your recycling program being a success or not.
In the event that you don’t have the authority to put paper recycling bins anywhere, there are still recourses left open to you. Appeal to the office manager or whoever is in charge. Explain all of the reasons why this step would benefit the business and office. If necessary, check and find out if any tax incentives are offered for recycling. Many communities have made it a point to put those in place to encourage businesses to recycle.
