Simple Idea No. 20 - Use Rechargable Batteries

Every year billions of disposable alkaline batteries are produced and sold. A very small fraction of these are recycled. Reduce the number of batteries you toss in the trash by purchasing a charger and rechargeable batteries.

Yes, rechargeable batteries require you to shell out more of your hard earned cash up front but you will save money in the long run by purchasing fewer batteries and less batteries end up in the landfill!

Take it a step further by recycling your single use batteries! In most areas there are companies that will take your used batteries and recycle them safely!

If you need assistance in locating a recycling center send us an email and we will do our best to help you out!

Now let's "charge" forward!

Collecting Milk Bags, Cell Phones, Ink Cartridges, and Glasses

Hi folks!

It's been a while since we've posted anything but we're still collecting all the items mentioned above. If you email us at bb@cjfriends.com we can arrange a pick up or a drop off. If you don't live in the Niagara region of Ontario I'm sure I could help facilitate a location for you in another region.

Have a good one!
