Recycle???

Getting back in gear on the recycling front. Our bins were overflowing. It is so hard to keep track of all the boxes, plastic, paper, etc. that one uses in a busy household. Would we be better off if we found a way not to buy so much of those pre-packaged items? It's almost like...we are creating extra work. I've heard that recycling plants use up a good amount of resources in order to run. What if we rethought how we lived so that we didn't need them anymore?
