We have left brochures and other info in our welcome folder on the kitchen counter. Please recycle paper, cardboard, metal, hard plastic, and glass in our recycling bin. Plastic film or bags can be added to our recycling collection to the right of the long drawers in the kitchen. We can even recycle clean, dry styrofoam and batteries in Austin, so don’t be shy about leaving those items for us to recycle for you. 💚
Compost goes in the green bin outside. You can compost all food scraps AND any paper products that came into contact with food or liquid, including pizza boxes! NO animal waste!
