Do You Recylce Cans????

I live in Kentucky and we don't get charged extra for the cans here. We just pay for the pop and that is it. So to recycle those cans would be like full benefit of it. We have several recycling centers around and I think you can get like 30 cents a pound for the cans. I don't recylce the cans only because we don't buy pop in the can. For those out there that do..oh yes it would be to their advantage to recycle. Great discussion and have a great evening..

I love to recycle bottles and cans here in NYS. The extra money comes in handy and helps pay down some bills. We realized that for every $10 we pay down on a bill, we save $13 in principal and interest. Makes sending in $5 in bottles and using the money toward bills ($6.50 paid) that much better.

Here in Oregon it is a five cents charge i always bring the cans back for my nickel. I guess some people just think its a hassle especially when they only have one or two cans to recycle. I figure a nickel is a nickel and if i put the nickels in a piggy bank then I will have some extra spending money some day. Not every place has the recyclin law. I know in Arizona they don't charge a can fee. So most people just throw away their cans and bottles.
