I hated changing DI resin, as disposing of the resin and rinsing the container were always a pain and sucky for the environment. What I now use is an almond milk straining bag which I open up in the sink. Zero resin goes down the drain, I hang it up over night outside and then throw it away in the garbage the next day.

Still seems like a waste to simply garbage-stream it....but I don't have any better solutions myself. File 13 every time. I like the idea of recharging it, but I've never heard of anyone doing that at home.
 
I'm a little too lazy for that.
