Totally know what you mean Lonelywombat. I work from home quite a lot, but also spend chunks of time away on projects, so it wouldn't have been odd for me to have 2, 3 or even a months worth of bottles, cans empty stacking up in my room, not able to do the recycling, or just too embarrassed to take all of it out. Using neighbors bins (Someone was using ours in return!)

Those wine boxes were (at the time) a godsend, however of course I was tempted to polish off the whole thing...3 bottles.

It's great that this is now a thing of the past.
