You should look up the disposal guidelines for sharp objects for your area

No need to slice up a sanitation worker's hands for no reason

I dump all of mine at the beach when I take my old car batteries to feed the eels

Broken glass

What it's something really good but with a disguised label

... are we not supposed to put it in the recycling for some reason

Yeah I picked it up from my grandmother. Broken glass goes into a marked container so the trash bros don't get hurt. I don't know if the trash bros actually see it though since it's in a bag.

never thought of doing this but its pretty based actually

Death to America

I do this for the sanitation workers. Dumpster divers are just a bonus I suppose.

Yes, chemistry class taught me to

if I see a box like this I'm assuming it has treasure and immediately shoveling it's contents into my mouth without checking it first

That dude searching for his bitcoin hard drive will appreciate your consideration

Yeah I do, in a bag or sth but not loose. Never thought about it for the dumpster divers but for the guys who have to throw those bags around. But here it's recyclable

I also wrap razor blades in cardboard

If I can't take it to the recycling center, for whatever reason, yeah. Sometimes I've taken two strips of duct tape and sandwiched the shards between them when I didn't have a box or small plastic bottle/tub to use.

I think glass goes in the recycling and the recycling centres don't like it when you put stuff in other containers

I do but I don't label it. I guess anybody going thru my trash should mind any taped up boxes that sounds like there's a bunch of broken glass inside

Well I've never thought about that before but I will in the future.

yeah. got in the habit at work when we have to sweep up broken glass to protect the maintenance worker when they take out the trash

thought there's a good chance someone is handling the municipal waste too although i think it's just cubed and dumped into a landfill by a truck. but you never know

Usually, but sometimes a random mess has me forgetting in the moment.

yes but I do wonder if it really matters

where I am all the recycling is mechanically dumped into a truck with enough force that there is no way that a significant amount of the glass isn't broken by the process

I do now

We're boxing up boxing up boxing up broken glass

in my area we have a separate tub for glass, and it doesn't get collected, we just fill it then take it to the recycling centre where there's a bottle bank or a bin for broken glass

You could try leaving your broken glass near your local police station

I just wrap shit like that in paper before binning it, more so at work where its more likely someone'll dig through the bin

I thought you were supposed to label it sharps. It's too bad my house doesn't have a sharps disposal slot (hole in wall) and I don't want to add one.
