It’s time for me to dispatch them all away.
They’re bottles from the drinks I consumed during the past days. They’re now plenty and it’s eating enough space in my table.
As segregation became a habit, I used to do not put it directly to the bins I have provided for non-bio materials. It’s recyclable and I waited them to be as many as they are before handing them to the garbage collector. They could add it to their collections of non-bio recyclable and sell it.
It helps in a little way and I’m also helping the environment too. I already discarded some of them.

That`s great. I agree with what you said that it may be little but atleast you`re also helping the environment

We do that also. We have a small space to collect plastic bottles and aluminum cans and when they are full we have someone buy those at a small price. It’s not that much but it’s a good feeling that you are not adding them to the trash but have it for recycling.

I rarely buy juice or water in plastic bottles, but every now and then I do it. There is a machine where I can discard the empty bottles and I receive a coupon that I can use in some grocery stores. I think it's a good way to get rid of those bottles

We can earn some coins from the buyer here. Not all are saleable though. It depends on the junkman

sometimes we fill the bottles up with drinking water and save them. when water supply is low, we can just use them for drinking urposes

@ZedSmart i think that number at the bottom of the plastic bottle shows if the bottle should be disposed after 1 or a few uses

But I think it's not safe to reuse the bottle in longer period as pet bottles are intended to be disposable and according to the expert, it has associated risks. In the long run, the bottle could be a breeding places of bacteria particularly the opening.

I also use to stock empty bottles outside our room when I was still studying in college. I want them to be sold to a nearest junk shop but i'm too shy holding a plastic of empty bottles thats why i just throw them in the trashbins.

Sell them for a little price. We also collect empty plastic bottles, canned goods, etc and give them away to my mom's friend. She badly needs money so we collect them for her.
