Spring is in the air, and that means it's time to spruce up the place. But what comes with cleaning out the closet and your junk drawers is the dreaded "what should I do with all this stuff??" moment. That's where we step in.
The Rounds is now offering TWO NEW pick up services to help you declutter your space and make sure your products are safely recycled or donated!
Recycling + E-Waste Pickup Service
With our Recycling + E-Waste Pick Up Service, The Rounds will handle all the hard work of making sure your hard-to-recycle products and electronics are recycled correctly.
How it works:
1. Add one of the two sizes for Recycling + E-Waste Pick Up to your bundle
2. On your next refill day, fill a bag with your recycling + e-waste based on the size you selected. Small bags should be no larger than the size of a plastic shopping bag, and a large bag should be no larger than a The Rounds bag
3. Fill up the bag with your donations and leave it out with your empties on your subsequent refill day
What we will take:
- Single use ("soft") plastic: plastic bags with a store drop-off label, grocery bags, plastic foam, bubble wrap, snacks bags, etc
- Consumer E-waste (batteries, lightbulbs, electronics, cords, holiday lights, etc.)
- Small household items (pots, pans, tableware, cutting boards, plant pots, to go mugs)
- Regular recyclables (cardboard, rigid plastic containers, glass)
- Books
What we will NOT take:
- Items that will not fit into The Rounds bag (any bag additional to the first 2 will not be taken)
- heavy items and bags:
- any iteam that's > 4 lbs
- any bag that is 10+ lbs (Large Size) or 5+ lbs (Small Size) - dirty or leaking bags
- Any hazardous materials
- Flammable and explosive materials (ammunition, aerosols, fireworks, camping stoves, gas or diesel canisters, etc)
- Industrial waste: air filters, automotive batteries, automotive filters, gas or diesel canisters
- Cooking oil / any fat
- Food waste
For recycling, please make sure that whatever is sent can be recycled and is not trash. Items that cannot be recycled should not be included in your bag, as we have no way to recycle them.
