Steven asks…
Will recycling centers take our wine bottles?
You know the recycling centers that you can take bottles and cans to and get money for them? Well we have a bunch of wine bottles and I can’t for the life of me remember if they’ll take them. I would find it pointless to waste my time taking them down there only to be turned down, any help would be very appreciated.
The Expert answers:
I’d give them a call to find out. I think our center only takes clear glass. I have no idea why, but I mentioned returning some green champagne bottles once, and my husband said they don’t accept them. So they went in our recycling bin. I remember thinking what a waste.
Maria asks…
Can I return beer cans at recycling centers?
Am I allowed to return beer cans or bottles to recycling centers and get the bottle deposit back if I am under 21?
The Expert answers:
Yes you can. You can turn in beer cans, bottles or metal flasks (any kind of alcohol container really). You could even turn in hypodermic needles, as long as you have them contained properly, and no one can punish you in the slightest. They can only give you money for your cans, glass and plastic bottles!!!

Chris asks…
what are some paper recycling centers that pay you for paper recycables near brooklyn ny?
Where are some paper recyling centers nea brooklyn, NY 11230 that will pay me for paper to recycle? and how much do they pay?
i have about 10,000 pounds of paper available for them to buy at this very moment, so quantity is not a problem
The Expert answers:
If any place would pay you for bringing paper to them to recycle would require such large amounts of paper from you that you would be operating a garbage collection company. If you want to get paid for recycling you have to find copper or other metals.
Daniel asks…
Republican senate bill on Recycling centers?
For my AP government class, I have to write a mock senate bill for “forestry” of california.
I decided to write my bill on recycling centers (adding recycling booths to every grocery store).
Do you have any statistics/facts that I can include in the bill? Any ideas? What about economic cost benefits?
Remember, I have to sound like a conservative republican!
Thanks!
The Expert answers:
No conservative republican would argue in favor or recycling booths in grocery stores.
Geez!
