Crap Percentage
Feb. 9th, 2011 08:15 amI realised this when I was talking to Rudulf yesterday, just how much stuff K & M left behind.
I have a green top SULO bin, and a yellow top SULO bin. The green is for general garbage and the yellow for recycled stuff. I pretty much stopped using the yellow bin while K &M were here. I have a green crate in the kitchen for recycled stuff (paper, cardboard, drink contains et cetera) but removed it because K & M would just use it as an "overflow" box for the kitchen rubbish bin. They thought it was a joke when I got upset over that, but I was the mug who had to sort out that stuff for the yello bin, which had two internal divisions (one for paper/cardboard, one for everything else). How are plastic bags and single slice cheese wrappers recyclable?
Anyway, after they went I brought my recycle crate back in and have been using it (and the bin) again. It does make a difference. But for the last three garbage pick-up days (always Thursday morning here) the green bin has been 75-80% full of their crap! Lots of stuff pre-bagged in black bags. Other stuff was just left lying about, like all the used hair product bottles in the bathroom, or the dope pipe I found in the bedroom.
At least after tomorrow I'll have some usable space in the green bin for further cleanup. haven't even touched anything in the backyard yet!
