I'm looking for recycling bins. I have a laundry room just off the kitchen and I'm planning to use them under the counter in there. Do you have some that you love? Do you have some you wish you had never bought? TIA

We installed the ones from The Container Store in a cabinet in the kitchen: http://www.containerstore.com/shop/trashRecycling/recycling?productId=10024300&N=70654&mr=recycling

We like them. Wish they were a bit bigger but they fit well in the cabinet and do the job. We have to empty them pretty frequently (about every 2 days or so).

I have a 3 pack of collapsible bins from IKEA.

We have two of these from IKEA, stacked on top of each other:

One for paper, one for glass/plastic. We don't need to separate our recycling, but I find it much easier (and cleaner for the paper!)

I love them, they are big enough to hold nearly a week of recycling.

^^ We have the Ikea ones, too. We stack 3 of them and keep them on a rolling rack meant for trash cans, so it's easy to roll the whole thing out on trash day.
