  • @alan30189

    You had one trashcan of aluminum dollars and you got $21.75 for it? How many pounds did you have and what was the price per pound that they paid you? In Georgia, according to one website I looked at, prices for aluminum cans are $.47 per pound. If you had 30 pounds in that garbage can, which is probably a high estimate, it would come out to $14.10.

    • @alan30189
      @alan30189 Год назад

      I agree, 100%. Save about 200 pounds of aluminum cans and then negotiate the price. Ask them what they pay for the price for aluminum cans. Then ask them if they pay a higher price for 200 pounds. I bet many places will pay you a few cents more for 200 pounds. Call several recyclers and shop one against the next. It takes them just as long to process a 200lb order as it does for somebody that’s coming in with 25 pounds.
      You got $.65 a pound, which is great! What state are you in? Currently, according to one of the websites I looked at, in Georgia, it’s only $.47 per pound. 11/08/22

They take the cans from Washington state where there is no deposit to Oregon frauding those that did pay the deposit. So i decided i will make the effort to collect my cans and turn them in for 5 bucks.

Every day I would have to large bags of cans that were $10 each. So after a week I had $100 worth of cans and bottles that I would recycle for cash. Made about $400 eatra every month when I had that job.

    You usually get only 1-1/2 to 2 cents a can. Not worth putting a lot of time into it. You are almost certainly making only a few bucks oer hour- way less than minimum wage.
    You have to empty them, crush them and load and unload twice. I appreciate doing something for the environment, but I understand why people throw the cans away.

    People always it's not worth the time to do it. I literally just collect cans from around the office and turn them into a recycling center that is right on my way home. I don't make a lot of money doing it, but I make money and it does not take very much time. Then I invest the proceeds into dividend paying growth stocks like appl or msft. That's where it's worth it in my opinion because it's not so much about how much you make at that moment. It's about how much will that money grow in the future.

      Well, you take them to a place that’s in your neighborhood, and you do it when you’re in the neighborhood of the recycler. You don’t make a special trip. If you don’t want to do that, fine, then put them in the recycling for your garbage collection service. Hopefully, they have one. Another option is to drop them off at a place that accepts recyclables and they then take them to the recycle center. There’s one within a half mile my house. It’s not that difficult. We need to start recycling everything possible. All plastic, all cardboard, all paper, and all types of metal should be recycled. Our government should make it illegal to throw those items in the trash. We’re running out of landfill space. It’s time for everybody to wake up. Japan does it, because they don’t have any landfill space. We can do it, as well. Then we don’t have to mine as much new metal ore to make new metal products.
      I predict in about 100 years, they’ll be mining our landfills for metals, because of all the metal that was thrown out by today’s pitifully wasteful society.
