Reduce, Reuse, & Repair
Before throwing something away, it's important to ask yourself-- Can I recycle this? But even more important is the question-- Can I reuse or repair this item first? Find resources below on how to reuse and repair items, as well as advice on how to reduce waste in the first place.
Consider renting tools for home projects, lawn and garden equipment, party supplies, and camping and recreational gear. Borrow a book, CD or DVD at a Public Library instead of buying your own copy.
Organize a community exchange at a local school, community center or a place of worship. Visit garage sales, estate sales, or auctions. Consignment shops and thrift stores are great places to find bargains and sell reusable goods.
