Where do I go to recycle cans and stuff?
I live in Reno,NV and someone told me that I can make money if i recycle cans,bottles,sodas, and stuff like that. But where? They told me of a place to go, but they didnt tell me where. Does anyone know where I can go? Thanks…!
To recycle your aluminum cans, go to the junk yard or the scrap yard, where they haul off old cars to. They weigh your cans and give you cash. You can also take your tin cans (and other steel) there for cash. Check to see if it’s steel with a magnet. Aluminum brings much more money than steel. Stainless steel (like the lining inside your computer) brings more money than either steel or aluminum and is sometimes not magnetic. Steel goes for $50 a ton right now, here, in Joplin, MO. Some scrap yards will pay for glass, but most just take metals.
You could go to a recycling center.
To recycle, glass bottles, aluminum cans, and plastics bottles, you can go to a local grocery store like, Kroger, Buches, Farmer Jacks and other stores…but idk what Grocery Stores there are in nevada. But that’s where i go.
Hope this Kinda Helps!
go to http://www.earth911.org to find local recycle centers, not all pay, so you may need to make a few calls.
Recycling center
When I am on the west coast in CA there are recycling centers set up in grocery store parking lots… On the east coast where I also live we return our cans in vending type machines in grocery stores. If you can’t get an answer, look in the blue pages of your phone book for your town sanitation system… they’ll know.
Our trash collectors just pick ours up on trash day. They gave us a special bin for recycling and we put it on the curb with the trash.
Or you can locate, very easily, a local recycling center by looking in your yellow pages or online.
