Five ways to recycle disposable razors
In keeping with my shower theme this month, I'd like to take a look at how to recycle disposable razors. Just to be clear it's not me who uses these. They end up in my household because a certain someone (my husband) is too frugal (read: cheap) to buy the other kind with the replaceable blades. Here are five ways to recycle those little landfill fillers:
- This isn't really a new use for a disposable razor but TreeHugger recommends the Razor Saver, a blade sharpener for disposable razors! Who knew?
- Use a dull razor to remove fuzz and pills from sweaters.
- Practice your shiv making skills in case you ever find yourself behind bars.
- Chop off the sharp and and use the stick to wind twine around or as a plant stake*.
- Package them up and send them to Gillette with a letter of demand stating that they should make more recycle-friendly products. Period.
