Segregated Recycling & Composting Bins
by Michael Graham Richard, Gatineau, Canada on 08.21.05

Whether you need to save space, want something more convenient or for aesthetic reasons, segregated bins are worth looking into. There's not much to explain: They are basically bins that are separated, and on one side you can put your recyclables and on the other (usually a smaller removable compartment) you can put your compostables. The three models you see above are from HomeRecycling.co.uk and go for £17.00 (US$30.50), £71.01 (US$127.40) and £17.00 (US$30.50) respectively, but it certainly is possible to find cheaper ones elsewhere. To get exact capacity and specifications, and to see other interesting models such as this one and this one, you can go here.

I'd love to know where to get similar items in the US - specifically, in the Charlotte, NC area. I'm trying to be a more thorough recycler.
