There must be a simple "trick" that prevents them from sticking
so tightly that one has to bang and curse to pry them apart.

What "trick" do you use to keep your plastic buckets from
sticking together?


There have been several good ideas such as blowing compressed air down
the sides, putting paper or cloth down the sides and plastic tubing down
the inside to keep it from making a vacuum seal. Since your recycling,
do as I do and save the little plastic blow tubes like are used on
everything from canned air to WD-40. You can tape them to the sides of
the buckets and use them to prevent a vacuum seal. It's recycling two
different types of plastic. ^_^
