ORGANIZATIONAL RECYCLING ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF USE

摘要

An organizational recycling assembly is disclosed that includes a housing having a shredding assembly disposed within a recyclable waste channel. The shredding assembly is operable to shred and/or crush a piece of consumer waste. The shredding assembly is upstream of at least one waste distribution divider, and a plurality of waste containers disposed below a plurality of recyclable waste distribution channels. At least one button is coupled to the housing and is operably configured to selectively move the at least one waste distribution divider to an open position fluidly coupling the recyclable waste channel to at least one of the first recyclable waste distribution channel and the second recyclable waste distribution channel. The open position results in an alternative recyclable waste distribution channel being sealed from the recyclable waste channel. The waste distribution dividers open and close based on a type of consumer waste selected by a user.
