Can’t stand the recycling bins. When people were using clear bags for that my neighborhood stayed clean now were back to crap blowing all over the street. They fucking went out and bought these new bins that still suck. Way to waste money Worcester

There's always two answers people give to this and neither one is satisfactory:

a) break it down - which would be a reasonable suggestion except that when you break down a TV sized box it takes up like 90% of the tiny recycling bin we get, so now you have no room for all your other reycling.

b) "Most towns won't pick up recycling you just leave on the ground." - Maybe so, but I'd bet most of those towns give you a recycling bin that's big enough to hold more than a single box.

Need to break it down into flat, smaller pieces of cardboard.

[edit] My partner has found the flyer we received when our large piece was rejected. It requested to cut the pieces down to approx 2 ft in length/width and remove plastic/tape if possible. We broke our box into pieces and folded each into something closer to 3x3, stack them; they took the stack sans issue.
