They get used and re-used in our family until they are falling apart! I'm looking forward to seeing your guide so I can learn some more things.

We had a Mardi Gras party 2 weeks ago and used paper plates and plastic utensils, BUT we separated the garbage and recycled it all. Our commissary (military grocery store) carries biodegradable utensils and plates that can go in the compost bin and I'm going to get those from now on, BUT I'm afraid our garbage inspector will think we're throwing stuff in the wrong bin if we put it in the compost. What to do? I look forward to seeing the guide. Does it count if you recycle the paper and plastic?

We have tons of re-usable gift bags, which we received presents in ourselves. We get tissue paper in gift bags or sometimes used as wrapping from the store or in things we order. We keep it all in a big bin, so when we have a gift to wrap we head to the bin instead of the store.
