What is PreCycling?

Precycling is the process of reducing waste by attempting to avoid bringing into the home or business items which will generate waste. By preventing the use of materials, you are preventing this item from being used and the need for it to be recycled as well. So basically you are preventing the wasteful use of an item by some sort of action that you take.

Examples of Precycling
