Looking for Sustainability ideas

I thought I find a way to keep costs down while still trying to stay eco-friendly. Trying to keep striving for sustainability. This a record of that journey.

Sometimes blunt and straight forward then sometimes sarcastic

Hide and seek Give away!!

I got a Hidden Recycler from Rubbermaid to review and to host a give a way!!

It was very easy to put together.  Plus I love the fact there was a piece of paper that showed you the size and how to attach to the cabinet.  OK I found this paper after I found out that it didn't fit!!  
The dimensions are 12.7” W x 9.9” D x 17” H. It was a little to big for my cabinets but it did fit on the outside of the one door... It was perfect... the door that has the trash on the inside.. recycles on the outside... think it will remind them to recycle??? LOL I hope...

 This is a win win product as a crunchy mom. The hidden recycler is made of recycled materials ( 65% post-consumer resin) and can be recycled after use...   It will hold around 36 cans and 8 pounds of materials! Big enough for gallon cider jugs.   It has a lid, so you don't have to look at the recycling mess in the can.

You can machine wash the bag on the cold gentle cycle  if it gets too gross to wipe down with a damp cloth.  But do not throw in the dryer, line dry.

You can remove the cloth bag part and empty the bag into your recycling can or center.  It has a carry handle that makes that so easy.  I live in a city that has curb side collection for recycling so I have a city property rolling container. On habit I line the bag with a blue bag but you don't have to. The bag is also lined to help be leak proof .

PLUS for the renters you don't have to drill anything to attach the bag to your door.  You just place them as the directions show and hook them over the door.  No holes.  Just metal hooks.


So You can win one also!!



The suggested retail price of the  Hidden Recycler is $15.99.  But you know how it is some store may change the price because they can set the price.

I am sorry but this give away is only open for USA and Canada.

So to win just leave a comment on what you like best about the  Hidden Recycler. Extra points if you are a follower. (leave a second comment to remind me) Oh yea also leave in your comment how I can let you know if you won!! Do the email _at_ your email provider to keep the bots away.

You have until April 2nd  to enter!

 I will select a winner by a random number generator. 

Good luck! 

I was not paid for this post just received a free hidden recycler for review.  This is  my opinion.  Facts are given from Rubbermaid (size and materials) Have to add the  Legal jargin you know....
