It depends on...
what producct you are talking about..things like plastic bags can be reused a lot of times...many products we get at home...like containers of biscuits, chips, cofffee etc...can be reused to store items...butthen things like broken parts, old pcs etc..need to be sent for recycling..if you can think of any innovative idea to reuse them....good enough...
The point really is to reuse...recycle whatever we can lay our hands on :)
