Reply to comment by j1mmyB3000 in LPT request: Moving out of the city for the first time at 18 in a rented apartment, any tips? by GauravxAg

Worst thing to do is eat take-out pizza and not recycle the boxes. Cook at home. Eat real food.

So at Good Will for kitchen stuff you don't have or need.

I second thing. Do not blow money on nice kitchenware things for your first apartment while you’re in school. They will just break and then even if they don’t they have to be carted around to your next place. Go to Good Will and buy mix and match kitchen stuff. Recycling at its finest.

Pizza boxes cannot be recycled, cardboard tainted with food grease is considered trash

Technically they can but you need to follow your city/county recycling guidelines

Our city allows them in the municipal compost bin.

They'll always send out a flyer on what is and isn't allowed; always make sure to familiarize yourself with it (directed at OP)
