Beneath the surface of your trashcan lie numerous items you could have recycled if you only knew better. For example, deodorant sticks can often be recycled, as well as aerosol cans, carpet, cds, jewel cases, wire hangers, keys, makeup containers, and mattresses. Check with your town's recycling program to discover what they accept. You might be surprised how much of your trash can be reused or recycled.
