I have been reading a lot lately about not wearing outside shoes in the house and it interests me even more because I’ve been saving to re-carpet my whole house. It hits me every now and then about how to do things though, like, say I’m cooking all day on Sunday then need to take the trash out. I’m assuming it’s change shoes, then say the grandkids stop by and want to go go for a bike ride? I’m assuming it’s change shoes. I guess maybe what I’m asking is how many baskets by how many doors with how many pairs of slip-ons (both indoor and out) do I need?
But you don’t take the compost or recycling out daily, either? I also compost and recycle, but rinsed recycling and cardboard are the only waste that stays inside overnight.
I have a closed 5gal bucket that I empty once a week and keep the recycling in spare cardboard boxes and take them down the street to the center whenever I get enough to fill my car
You empty your garbage every single day? How small is your trash can? That’s a lot of bags.
Five person household. By the end of the night, it’s always at least three-quarters full. Plus, it beats attracting bugs.
Five people makes a little more sense. Serious question, what kind of bugs does garbage attract where you live?
fruitflies, houseflies, wasps
Edit: five people and four cats, we usually take the trash out right after scooping the litter in the afternoon
