23.01.2022 Quizz time! What is the fastest growing category of waste in the world? Fashion or E-waste? E-waste! Over 53 million tons have been produced globally and it is expected to double by 2030... We live in a tech world and we LOVE all our devices but we can totally act on this!...

23.01.2022 Do you know how long it takes for a plastic bag to decompose? And how about that straw that we used for sipping our bubble tea? Answering these questions is incredibly complex, because many factors have to be taken into account (how is the landfill, are they exposed to the direct sun...) And yes. Basically the answer is: a looooot of time, too much. That is why it is so important to reduce our waste and recycle what we couldn't avoid ... How? Easy. Book a Power Pickup for free using the code TOYSTORY. We will take care of the rest.

22.01.2022 Are disposable coffee cups recyclable? The answer is No. . Disposable coffee cups are lined with a waterproof plastic called polyethylene which makes them non-recyclable and a contaminant. So dispose them in the red bin and use a non-disposable cup when you can! . .... . . #coffee #coffeecup #plastic #plasticfree #zerowaste #recyclinh #recyclesmart See more

20.01.2022 Trivia Thursday! What do you know about micro-plastics? We could be eating 1 teaspoon of micro-plastic every week!... Those tiny pieces of plastic are produced from plastic breaking down - synthetic cloth are a huge contributor as plastic fibers such as polyester and acrylic end up in water after each washing machine. In the ocean, micro-plastics are mistaken for food by baby fish... impacting the whole food chain. Not all impacts are well-known yet... So, what do we do about it? 1. "3R" - best starting point is Refuse, Reuse & Recycle plastics :-) Remember, we're here to help for the last R! 2. Let's have a look at our closet too. Polyester, acrylic are huge contributors of micro-plastic pollution. 2 ways of avoiding this: prefer natural fiber or for this absolute crush you have on this 100% polyester masterpiece (we know the feeling!): try and use special laundry net.
19.01.2022 At RecycleSmart, we're on a mission to divert waste from landfill by making recycling the tricky stuff... super easy.

Tomorrow, we will be announcing how we're making it even EASIER to recycle... This announcement is BIG, maybe even bigger than Kanye West's ego but that's debatable....
