btw i live in OHio
The Expert answers:
I’m in CA and our recycling center goes by weight, not the CRV. Bottles are pretty heavy so you should be able to get a good chunk of change. And they pay me cash on the spot.

Mandy asks…
Is there a recycling center where businesses donate there leftover items for schools to use as craft projects?
There used to be a recycling center in Jamaica Plain, Ma. that teachers in the Boston area could go to and get items that they could use for craft projects. I went there about 14 years ago. I’m hoping there is another site like this near where I live in Canton, Ma.
Thanks
The Expert answers:
There is in the Hull UK it is called the scrap store. Anybody involved in a social enterprise pays a very low annual fee and a low trolley charge for materials donated by local businesses. Individuals can join if they work with socially disadvantaged kids. Often magizine gifts and other unwanted stock is donated too. Great place.
Chris asks…
Computer recycling centers for cash?
I have 17 computer monitors, 20 old computers (p3/p2 class) whole bunch of keyboards, mice and peripherals and about 10 extra motherboards I’m looking to get rid of. I figure the keyboards/mice won’t be recyclable but can I get any money out of the computers and monitors and motherboards for the copper and other metals in them? I need to get this crap out of here, but I don’t want to just throw it all in the garbage, and I’d like to make some of my money back from when I bought this stuff originally.
For the record I live near Pittsburgh PA.
The Expert answers:
Most eveywhere i’ve looked in denver anyway, charges for this. I do have a friend who knows of a place which takes circuit borads etc and pays cash, but i was too lazy to go and just gave my stuff to him. Mostly to be sure it wasn’t just going to end up in a landfill.

Mark asks…
Could anyone please tell me where to get rid of the old alloy wheel?
I want to change to a new set of alloy wheels for my car, but I don’t know where to get rid of the old one. I’m living near Seattle, WA. I’m not sure the recycling center wants them. Do tires stores like Les Schwab and Goodyear want them (if I’m going to buy a new set of tires from them too)?
Thank you!
The Expert answers:
My local scrap yard pays 5 to 10 dollars each..but if you got a good set put them in paper for 50 dollars.
