I already recycle our aluminum cans but don’t know where I can take our bottles.
Please give me specifics. Oklahoma City area suggestions would be great.
P.S. Tap water is out of the question. I live in Chickasha, OK and the water is aweful enough to make me sick.

There is a recyceling place in town that pays you for aluminum cans.

Do you reuse paper bags? Do you turn off the water when you brush your teeth? Do you take shorter showers? Do you know what food you want to get out of the refrigerator before you open it so you don’t keep the refrigerator open for a long time to save energy? We should all go green and help protect the environment.

Those things are recycled in my area.

As a home owner I tend to look at the price tag and also ways to save money. I even tend to buy degradable trans-bags to help the garbage in my area since the bags I have used will take 1,000 of years to degrade due to the plastic used.

I make sure the lights are off when I leave and I have the temperature at a setting I can handle. What else can I do to save money and the environment at the same time. Am I missing something?
We currently don’t have a recycling company to pick up anything but clear plastic at this time.

I am located in Kansas-

I ended up buying a new one so I would like to recycle it…..Is it possible to recycle it and get paid? Like, aluminum cans? I am also in California.

And if there are any, where? I already recycle everything I can but I figure if I can make a few bucks, why not.

I read that aluminum cans are probably the best thing to recycle. But when it comes down to paper, for example, it’s probably a net loss for the environment (due to all the transporting, sorting, processing, bleaching, re-manufacturing, etc, that must be done to get it back to a usable state).

So basically I’m trying to figure out what items make sense to recycle and which don’t.

Thanks!
