Recycle in Style - Rubbermaid Hidden Recycler #Giveaway
If you did not know it, let me just tell you now..
Marc and I should have stock in Coca Cola with the amount that he drinks.
I think at times he thinks that they are going to stop making it, so he has to try and drink all he can before then! Okay, he is doing much better now that he is drinking flavored waters, but still... We do keep Coke on hand!
That being said, I was so glad to have the chance to review the new Rubbermaid Hidden Recycler!
You see, we tried saving to recycle before, but there just wasn't anywhere to do it.
Our county doesn't recycle and we didn't want bags or boxes just sitting around to collect the items in.
Our pantry isn't big enough to hold 2 trash cans, so we just did not do anything to help, just added more trash to the landfills!
The times, they are a changing!
We were sent the Rubbermaid Hidden Recycler and it was so easy to assemble that I did it in about 3 minutes... (That included taking it out of the box.)

You basically just took it out of the box, slipped the handle on the bag, slid it into the holder and then placed it where you want it to go. There are two little "over the door" hooks that allow you to hang it where you want it to go, as well as move it if need be.

Their pictures showed it in the cabinet space, under the sink and I was so excited about that... BUT, ours did not fit there. I am not sure if it was because of the wooden separator between the doors, or the piping/garbage disposal, or maybe even both... but it did not work. That did not stop me, I just moved it to the pantry area! Yep! It now hangs in there on the bottom of our storage shelves! As I mentioned, it is easy to move, so if you are having a party or something, you could move it to a more accessible location for easy recycling!

The final plus of it all? The "system" has a easy to remove bag so that you can just pull it out and take it to the recycling center when you are ready to. Just pull the bag handle out and go... Not to mention it is made of a material that is easy to wipe off with a cloth.
We have been impressed with it so far and are excited that we are finally doing our part to help the environment!
Just a bit more information, from the Rubbermaid Site:
