A Milton family of 5 puts out only 1 barrel of trash per month!  How do they do it?

Of course they recycle all plastics, metal and glass. They also recycle every piece of paper and cardboard in the house: all junk mail, inserts and envelopes large and small, magazines, flyers, newspapers, cardboard boxes, food cartons and packages. The paper & cardboard gets put into brown paper grocery bags, which get carried to the curb when full and are just the right size for the recycle truck. All plastic bags go back to the grocery store, and the family composts in a bin they bought from Town Hall. 

This results in great savings:

  They only pay $3 PER MONTH for trash!

If they can do it, you can do it!

If you can rip it, you can recycle it!

Don't throw money away!
