What will you do with your old news papers,magazines and empty milk sachets? previously i used to throw the empty milk sachets in the bin. But the scrap vendors who will collect our old news papers and magazines will take these sachets also for a price. So i dispose them in this manner.

I too was collecting empty covers of milk sachets before. Then I noticed lots of mosquitoes are hovering around and it fetches hardly any peanuts. So I started throwing it out. Now my servant maid wants it and so I keep it outside and she takes it to her home. As far as news paper and magazines are concerned, I put it to the old news paper man who is regular to our house since 32 years.

Near my neibourhood also some people throw the milk sachets before but not now. Any way we are not keeping it inside our house, but outside in a corner in a big bag. Since sunlight is falling on it, no mosquitoes will come as there is no moisture or wetness because of the sun. After a considerable amount of accumulation, they sell it.

Hmmm.. We usually sell our old newspaper and magazines. But as for the used milk cartons and sachets, we don't have the same collecting vendors with those here. It'll be nice if we had those though. We merely throw the sachets out, and the milk cartons (we don't usually have them though) we clean them up and cut them and put water to be frozen hehe.

Hi laydee Sorry for responding you so late. Any way we do not need any old milk sachets so instead throwing it in the bin, better we can sell it even if for a pittance, I don't mind
