Don't Be A Hoarder - Nov. 9th

I am definitely not a hoarder. I do, however, empathize with folks who struggle with the issue. Being constantly surrounded by all that mess would cause me to become truly dysfunctional, too. 


The very instant clutter reaches a certain threshold in my world, all other work must stop until the whole place receives a thorough, forensic investigation-level scrub down.

During my last cleaning bender, I was reminded that a lot of the trash I end up with is stuff I never wanted in the first place - excessive packaging, junk mail...I never even look at it and wish it didn't come to me. And phone books - really???

These things - and, frankly, most others - are recyclable. And fortunately, most people want to and will do the right thing in recycling their clutter - particularly when it's made easy. 

So, if the little blue tub isn't offered on your block, but you still want to recycle, below is a complete list of area recycling drop-off sites. The locations are sorted by zip code, so you can clear out the mess at your own home or office and conveniently kiss it goodbye.

But first, so the paper junk doesn't just come right back, visit the Direct Marketing Association's website and opt-out of the junk mail: DMAchoice.org
