SO...how do I manage to re-cycle stuff without my house resembling Steptoes Yard?

DH and I are making a concerted effort to recycle more - however this means that our hall is starting to take on a certain 'stig of the dump' vibe. Can you buy decent storage for stuff to recycle?

I had a corner cupboard which had a carousel in

I took out the carousel & stuck a veggie rack Plus some bins in

I now have a recycling cupboard that the cat can't get it

oooh, there is a specific website (has had a clickthrough from here in the past) with 100s of brilliant storage - I am at work and can't remember what it's called but will be home later and will link if no-one else has, it's a nice site (when I bought my bins the owner brought them personally!)

Just looking at St Lakeland, patron saint of all things storagey, but can't spot any obvious solutions. Just having a look-see at Natural Collection.com. WW - if you could link the storage site that would be great.

If you're near an Ikea they have stackable boxes (which open at the front). They hold loads and I definitely recycle much more than I used to.

Found it! home recycling (amazingly!)

The stackable bins with flip lids are good - we have 2 of the taller narrower ones and 3 of the flatter wider ones.

WendyWeber · 29/07/2007 19:43

Those white ones are cheaper at the holding company!

WendyWeber · 29/07/2007 19:44

Oh - only if you buy 3!

I have 4 black bins down the side of the house (cartons, glass, paper & cardboard)
