I don't have to think about it - we have all the recycling bins down
in the garbage room and en route to my vehicle I can deposit stuff
without having to accumulate it up here. True garbage can go down
the garbage shute on every floor to the skip.

I notice the one thing that seems to confuse some people is the
difference between cardboard as in cereal boxes and corrugated
cardboard. Otherwise they are pretty good. By the door out of the
parking garage are the green bins for compost.

All the bottles and cans are collected in a separate corner of the
garbage room and the super takes them to the recycler and the deposit
is returned. We have sponsored a kids hockey team for years now.
