Recycle Bin With Lid Needed For Our Classroom's Recycling Center

Help me give my students a large recycle bin with a lid for our classroom recycling center.

My Project

My 6:1:1 high school students are learning the importance of recycling. We are recycling leaders at our inclusive High School. We presently collect bottles and cans from classes throughout the building. We also collect papers that need to be shredded and place in our paper only bin.

Presently we do not have a bin for our bottles and cans we collect to recycle.

Our classroom is very neat and sanitary. But the recyclable bottles and cans we collect in the week are not in a bin and it's in a cardboard box that is grimy and unsanitary. With a proper recycle bin with a circular lid for easy recycling access this will help my students do their recycling job with ease. This bin will also keep our room more sanitary and beautiful.
