Five easy pieces is supposed to be, well, easy. But there’s a few basic rules that we advise, just for safety’s sake:
- Don’t pick up anything sharp or rusted. Be careful with bits of metal or broken glass. And needles of any sort are a definite, don’t-even-consider-it no-no.
- Wear gloves if you like, and always make sure to wash your hands after you’ve picked up your five easy pieces.
- You can collect the five easy pieces in a plastic bag — oftentimes, that plastic bag itself is one of your five pieces! — and toss it in any trash can you can, either municipal or when you get home. And try to recycle stuff that can be recycled: aluminum cans, plastic and glass bottles, newspapers, etc., either in public recycling bins or at home.
