Can you get any money for recycling cans?
We live in VA and my fiance has been saving piles of beer cans from parties becase he thinks he can get money for them…is this true?
The Expert answers:
WHERE I LIVE IN NEW MEXICO THEY GIVE YOU ABOUT 50 CENTS PER POUND. IT HELPS ALOT. LOOK FOR A METAL YARD THEY MIGHT RECYCLE YOUR CANS IF NOT THEN HE JUST COLLECTED TRASH… SORRY.
JUST LOOK IT UP IN YOUR PHONE BOOK USUALLY UNDER THE SALVAGE YARD OR FEED STORE OR METAL YARD OR A RECYLING CENTER. THE CITY MIGHT KNOW SOME PLACES TOO.

how can i make money recycling old computer parts in miami-dade county?
hi all, i have been searching non stop for answers on this, i have lots of old computer parts, which i do want to recycle. but have paid my fair share of money for them, is there anywhere in miami dade county where i can recycle these parts for some dough, it doesnt have to be alot, but something at least. i have 3 motherboards, a couple of optical drives 3-4 cpus, a hdd, ram and some power supplies. please if anyone can help me out, thanks
The Expert answers:
Call or visit a local computer repair shop, if the parts are workable, they’ll likely offer you something. Don’t expect much, though, computers depreciate much faster than cars do. Look at your ram and HDD – they need to be at least scalable to current offerings. A 20GB hard drive is pretty small, when you can get 16GB chips for your camera.

where can i find a machine or place to recycle cans for money in NJ …my zip code is 08096?
i have alot of cans to recycle for money and i dont know where to turn them in
The Expert answers:
Not all states participate in that, I don’t know if NJ does or not. I just finished a can drive in Michigan and had to deal with that myself, some brands weren’t returnable here. Usually those machines are only in grocery stores or drug stores.

I was wondering if there was a recycle center that takes soda/beer cans in exchange for money in Lake Worth Florida? Can someone help?
The Expert answers:
You take them to the grocery store. They have machines that you put the bottles and cans in and it crushes them. Then it prints out a receipt saying how many cans you have, you bring it inside to the clerk, and they give you the money.
