Great Design But What About the PAPER?

I recently received an Ecopod as a gift and was very excited to get all my recycling in one place. The Ecopod has several departments for aluminum and plastic bottles, glass containers and plastic bags. The main problem is that I make a big effort to NOT buy items packaged in plastic so most of my recycling is glass and a ton of paper. The glass portion of the ecopod is only enough for a few wine bottles and there is no area for paper. It would also be great if they could design this to include a composter, then it would truly be an all in one system assuming they added much larger compartments.

It looks great but I wouldn't spend the money on this one even though it looks beautiful. The retail price on this is also over $300 so I think that is a bit steep for a garbage can with compartments.

Wow - that is expensive for a garbage can with compartments! I can see how something like that might be useful for apartment dwellers with no yard space but that price should come with some sort of customization... more »
