Recycle box
The recycling bin is an object that appears inside the Town Hall in Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk, serving as place for players to discard and recieve unwanted items. It returns in Animal Crossing: New Leaf as a Public works project.
Uses and characteristics
The recycling bin holds the various items that the player and their neighbors have discarded. The player can take any of the items that he or she wishes to take out of the recycling bin, similar to lost and found. The recycling bin holds a large variety of items, including furniture, clothes, accessories, and pitfall seeds. However, these pitfall seeds are randomly computer generated. Every Monday and Thursday at 6 a.m., the recycling bin is emptied.
Appearance
The recycling bin is white. Its lid is a forest green color. On the lid is an oval with the same white color. Inside the oval is what appears to be fish bones in the same color of forest green.
Trivia
- On rare occasions, a player can find a Throne (piece of furniture) in the recycling bin. This is the third most expensive item in Animal Crossing: Wild World, selling for 800,000 bells.
