The bin conveyor is hybrid of a lost property box, and a way to make
sure donated items are actually disposed of when not being used.

-   Lost Property is put in **THE BOX OF SHAME**
-   Donated items are put in the 3 Week Box
-   Every Wednesday evening, the boxes are rotated down, and the
    contents of the 1 week box are binned.

Some Example Stories about the Bin Conveyor
-------------------------------------------

### Lost Property

-   Hacker A Leaves an iPad charger on the central table.
-   Hacker B, arriving the next morning, places this in **THE BOX OF
    SHAME**.
-   Hacker A retrieves iPad charger when next in space. Hacker A feels
    shameful about leaving things out.

### Bin that Shit

-   Hacker C is making a thing, decides to head home, and leaves a VERY
    IMPORTANT PIECE OF PLASTIC out in the kitchen, for no apparent
    reason.
-   Long suffering Hacker B arrives, sighs loudly, and places the
    plastic item in **THE BOX OF SHAME**.
-   Wednesday night appears, and Hacker C still has not reclaimed the
    SUPER IMPORTANT ITEM. The contents of **THE BOX OF SHAME** Is
    rotated down into the 3 Week box.
-   Another Wednesday happens, the boxes are rotated again, and the MEGA
    AWESOME THING has made its way into the 2 Week box.
-   Yet another Wednesday happens, again the boxes are rotated, and the
    PLASTIC LUMP OF DOOM is rotated into the 1 Week box.
-   A week passes, the seasons change, everyone now has a beard for some
    reason. The MEGA IMPORTANT LUMP OF PLASTIC obviously wasn't that
    important, and is thrown away.

### I'm donating this

-   Hacker D has a samoflange they think people in the space will be
    able to use for flibbling, and therefore must be donated to the
    space.
-   Hacker D brings the samoflange, and places it in the 3 week box.
-   Turns out nobody in the space actually flibbles, so the item is
    binned 3 weeks later. The samoflange is no longer taking up space in
    the hackspace.
