Recycling Fun Facts That Might Surprise You
If you’ve ever wondered whether recycling is really worth the effort, the numbers speak for themselves.
According to Greenstar Recycling, the average person generates nearly a ton of trash every year—but a big portion of that doesn’t need to go to a landfill.
Here are a few eye-opening stats:
- 65% of the trash we throw away could actually be recycled.
- Glass takes over 1 million years to decompose in a landfill, yet it can be endlessly recycled into new jars, bottles, dishes, and even jewelry.
- Recycling just one aluminum can saves enough energy to power a TV for two hours, or a computer for three.
- A used aluminum can might be back on a grocery shelf as a new can in just 60 days—that’s fast!

Maintaining your recycling cart is a simple but important way to keep Cypress Mill looking clean and running smoothly. If your cart needs replacing, don’t wait—give Best Trash a call and keep the recycling going strong.
