When milk is delivered at doorsteps bottles and the bottles are washed and returned to the milk man to be reused , the act keeps glass away from the recycling centre . When a rubber band is saved from a newspaper roll each morning to be reused later , it keeps it away from the landfill . Finding repeated use for things helps reduce waste.
Reuse before recycling
Recycling involves collecting , sorting , and processing things into new products . This process needs money and uses transport , which adds to pollution . On the other hand , using an old teapot as a flower vase is "reusing " just as much as saving wrapping paper from a gift to pack a present later .This type of reuse saves money and natural resources because the item does not need to be recycled .
Again and a 'gain'
Disuse to reuse
One person's disuse can well become another ones reuse . Hangers from dry - cleaners can be returned to them . Selling or donating books , appliances , clothes and sports equipment earns money for people who give and saves money for those who takes . Exchanging items with neighbours and friends also helps people who could use things that other do not need . Yet , it is best to reduce first and reuse as a second option .
Same but new
Old tyres can be turned into boat fenders , steel drums can be used as feeding troughs for livestock , and torn clothes can be made into cleaning rags . ' Kabadiwallas ' , or scrap collectors , in India buy paper that is used for repackaging or recycling . Countries like Jordan and Kuwait , which have a shortage of fresh water , treat and reuse waste water in fields parks , fountains , car washes and factories .

Products can be reused for the same purpose . Plastic bags can be saved to be used later . in countries such as India and Pakistan , soft drink bottles are collected after use and refilled to reduce costs of production . Sometimes , when furniture , toys , shoes and gadgets are damaged , they can be reused after repair . This too helps save energy . Fix it , so you can use it !
