Recycling cardboard boxes

We recently moved to Chilliwack and have tons of boxes from our move. I also come from a condo that had different bins for glass, paper, cardboard, organics and garbage.

I'm trying to wrap my head around how to organize my things into blue, green and black bins.

According to the Chilliwack website I should place my boxes in the blue bin, but I have too many just to throw two boxes every week.

Is there a place where I can take all the styrofoam (from my TV box) and cardboard boxes to recycle?

Also, should I place glass containers in the black bin? Or take them to a recycling center?

Slowly building network infrastructure in a townhouse

I recently became a homeowner of a 3 floors townhouse in Canada. There are cat5 points on every room, living room, kitchen and office (6 total), and I would love to have cat6A but right now I don't feel confident enough to start making holes in the drywall to run cables.

​

I can maybe try to replace existing cables if they are not nailed internally.

​

I got the cheapest fiber plan in my area at 1.5G with the option to go up to 5G. I don't think I need more than this, even though I do a lot of torrenting, but in a few years the cheapest plan will be faster than this during contract renewal.

​

Now, I want to start building my 2.5G network infrastructure with Ubiquiti, but have $0 to put on this. Starting today I will be saving around $1000/month. Considering my needs listed next, how should I prioritize what devices to buy first?

​

- I prefer cable over wifi where possible: 2 in the office, 4 in the living room, 4 in one room, 2 on each of the remaining 2 rooms

- my devices support 2.5G

- I don't have a preference between wifi 6 or 7

- they can be rack mountable. Not preferences

​

How would you approach this?

Quick to get my money and slow to fix their mistakes

I have Shaw right now and it's a nightmare. I'm moving to a new address and decided to switch to Telus.

​

I called yesterday and requested only internet (1.5gb) but also agreed on migrating two phone numbers to Telus mobility for the extra discount. All good, and we agreed on the installation day (2 weeks from now)

​

I checked my email this morning with the order summary and to my surprise I had TV, Internet and Home Phone which was never part of the conversation at any point at all.

​

I immediately called support and asked to please remove that. I never wanted it, and I never asked for it. And they are brave to ask me if I wanted security. Dude, I don't want anything else, I just want what I asked for.

​

It took me 15 minutes to setup my account yesterday... And today, 1h and still talking with Support... Well, it just got disconnected (surprise!)

​

They keep asking me the same questions, trying to upsell me things I don't want instead of focusing on what I clearly communicated. They keep me on hold constantly.

​

I know they are doing their jobs and just want to meet their quotas, but man...

​

With what entity can I file a complaint?
