How to Recycle 4 Things From Your Factory Job

As they say, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. These are four things that your factory job would prefer that you throw away but if you have a use for it you have a use for it you know?

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Yellow plastic binding strap
• Thick Heavy Duty plastic
• Cardboard boxes
• Saran Wrap like plastic

1. Yellow plastic binding strap that is normally used in the strapper machine. Sometimes the machine malfunctions and spews at least 15 feet of the stuff out right before the mechanic has to come and fix the machine. Take the long binding strap and use it to tie your hammock up between two trees in your backyard. The binding strap is very strong and can hold a human being if it is tied correctly.
2. Thick heavy duty plastic that is used to wrap graphics items like coupons when they are shipped. The top portion of the plastic can be used to lay down in a room that you are painting to protect the surfaces. The large square shaped plastic is heavy duty and is probably thicker than 8mm or thicker than the kind that you can get at The Home Depot and the best part about it is that it is free.
3. Cardboard boxes. They can be used to create sculptures. They can be used for moving. They can be used for storage. They can be used to throw things away in. They have many uses.
4. Saran Wrap like plastic can be used with stiff support like stakes to hold the plastic up to make a makeshift greenhouse for tomato plants in cold weather. The French have a way of cloche gardening that extends the warm weather season for a few weeks and this plastic would be ideal here.
5. Now don’t you feel just F.I.N.E. Fu_ _ed up, insecure, neurotic and existential for recycling? Awww it just gets you right there doesn’t it.

Tips & Warnings

• I would double up on the binding strap for safety but it is strong nevertheless.
