2. The other way is to not make them single use

I'll use and refill a bottle probably for a month until it starts cracking and leaking.

We live in a very rural area and separate trash like this until we get enough, at which time my son binds the trash in chicken wire and uses them as giant bricks to channel water or for other building projects. Dirt eventually fills into the cracks and they look like bricks.
