Every day, more and more people are trying to do their part to be more environmentally friendly. One of the easiest ways to do this is by recycling. There are numerous benefits to recycling, such as it helps to create jobs, can be more cost-effective than trash collection, saves energy, and reduces the need for new landfills. Think about this as an example: recycling scrap aluminum requires just five percent of the energy used to make new aluminum.
When you recycle, you are taking a product that can be used again and putting it back into society, to be reused and repurposed in different ways, making a big impact to our world. Here are some recyclable things that you might find at your Lady Lake, Florida apartment at The Quarters:
Aluminum
Glass
Paper
Plastic
Cardboard
Newspaper
Motor oil
Used car batteries
Steel cans
In addition to using the raw materials from a disposed item to make a new item, there are many other ways to recycle, such as donating gently used clothes, toys, and other items to people who can use them as-is, so those items dont end up in a landfill.
At The Quarters Apartment Homes, we encourage our residents to do their part to help reduce their carbon footprint. If you are not yet a resident of our community, but would like to learn more, contact us today or stop by our leasing office. We would love to take you on a tour and show you our wonderful amenities, such as our pool, clubhouse, surround-sound theater, and fitness center with nearby playroom.
