ABSTRACT:
A recycling device (10) comprising a chute (12). A structure (14) is for mounting an upper end of the chute (12) through an exterior wall (16) of a building (18), so that the chute (12) will extend at an angle down and away from the exterior wall (16). A container (20) having an open top is provided. The container (20) is located on the ground (22) under a lower end of the chute (12) outside the exterior wall (16) of the building (18). A lid (24) is on the open top of the container (20). A collar (26) extends up from the center of the lid (24). A flexible coupling member (28) is attached between the lower end of the chute (12) and the collar (26). The container (20) can receive useful recyclable materials that are inserted into the chute (12) from within the building (18). The flexible coupling member (28) will allow the lid (24) to be lifted off of the open top of the container (20), when the useful recyclable materials fill up the container (20).
