Got a big cleaning project you need to tackle?
Make sure to protect your skin from harsh cleansers with a pair of nitrile gloves. These gloves are available with and without lining and are sold per a dozen pairs. The price is very reasonable and you can reuse them for a while, unlike many cleaning gloves that are difficult to get back on or tear easily. Nitrile gloves are cut resistant and puncture resistant so they would be great for gathering cans and glass for recycling. They are even approved for food handling, but make sure you change gloves before handling food to prevent contamination.
