-====== Trash ======
-New 'dwellers can be shocked at the amount of trash they generate.
-===== preventing trash =====
-The biggest win is to prevent bringing potential trash into your camper in the first place.  This might involve:
-  * purchasing products that are not excessively packaged
-  * removing products from packaging after purchase and throwing it away in the store's own trash receptacles
-  * using one's own shopping bag
-===== storing trash =====
-  * store trash in trash - wad up trash and stuff it into pickle jars, tin cans, or other trash items.  Tin cans might nest inside each other, Russian-doll style.
-  * if possible, store the trash outside the vehicle and off the ground.
-===== disposing of trash =====
-The trick here is to be ruthless in disposing of trash;  **always deposit trash** when you see an appropriate bin.  It's like your dad's advice to always take the opportunity to pee before a road trip. :-)
-  * making the trash as compact as possible makes it easier to deposit into hinged bins
-  * paper materials might be thrown into the campfire where appropriate.  Note:  [[food:cooking:stoves#rocket_stoves|rocket]] camping stoves can burn paper and cardboard scrap internally with reduced smoke
