I live with my fiance. It me, her and 4 cats. We live in a relatively small apartment, nothing fancy.
But dear lord how is it possible that two people have so many garbage bags to throw out? I could be exaggerating a bit as I’m a bit overworked so cleaning becomes more tiresome, but seriously - from an environmental to mental health to less chores perspective, help me: what are some tricks you use to reduce garbage?
Get a reusable bag for the grocery store. Removing the plastic or paper bags is a huge space saver. We also reorganized our fridge to make our vegetable upfront so we have been using them more. This reduces food waste and now we use them in more of our cooking. Especially since we have been shopping less and getting only what’s needed for the next few days
