We're moving again! At least once a year for the last 5 years! So here are my Earth Friendly moving ideas!
1.) Use boxes acquired from supermarkets. That way they are used a second time before they are recycled.
2.) Use newspaper to pack and then recycle it after you move. No need to waste tissue paper.
3.) Use towels, washclothes, napkins, etc. to wrap delicate objects in instead of paper. You're moving them too anyway.
4.) Goodwill, recycle, sell, or give away everything you haven't worn recently, won't wear again, or have not used in the last month. Odds are, you don't need it.
I'm a twenty something striving to become the person I want to be "when I grow up". Yes, I may be a wife and mother, but my adventure is just beginning. My motto: "Live Stronger. Live Greener. Live Simpler. Love."
#3 is a great suggestion, but #2 (newspapers) will leave black marks all over your dishes and the like. You'd be better off using clothing.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of using clothing! Thank you!
