Helen asks…

San Diego Recycling Center question?

How do I locate a recycling center here in San Diego that will give me money back for the CRV on the bottle? I mean 5 cents per bottle, I notice some recycling centers only do weight, which from what I heard, is 4 cents per bottle instead of 5, not a huge difference, but if you have a whole bunch of recyclables it does add up.

The Expert answers:

YAY. GO SAN DIEGO! If you have $100 dollars worth of bottles in comes out to be around 1 dollar lost lost. Why would you bother asking when you can just do the first. My Orc. Conductor does it by weight i think. Idk why though.

Sandy asks…

I’m looking for those Recycling box centers.. the ones that are usually outside of stores?

I live in san diego and i havent seen any. do they have a website. I’m talking about the little looking box things and theres usually just one guy taking your cans. does any one know how i can find one?

The Expert answers:

Try your local yellow pages. You might find a collection center that pays you a little more cash than what you would find at one of those small setups. They will most likely be in an industrial part of town, but they can give you a current price per pound over the telephone.

Laura asks…

IN SAN DIEGO are there any dance troups/theatre troups that would be willing to “lend” costumes 4 short time?

I think that when performing costumes help the kids get in character, However at the Community Center I work at, the kids have little parent support or if they do, they haven’t got the $ to support their kids with “costumes” for performances & recitals. I am attempting to COACH quality programs without the HIGH cost that if they had to pay they wouldn’t be able to join the programs. I want to have a recital & a competion….The kids want to “dance” the part.. and why shouldn’t they with a variety of “themed dances”, however, they’ll never be able to afford it, So, I was hoping to get hooked up with some theatre companies and dance troups that would “lend” some costumes for a couple a week. Shouldn’t we recycle & won’t they and thier parents be proud to be able to look the part… and dance the night away. I wish every child could have the chance to perform and I am hoping to make that happen…thanks for any advice & information.

The Expert answers:

I would ask UCSD or CSUSD or even La Jolla Playhouse.

It is possible that one or more of these companies may have a way for you to use these costumes at a very low price… If not free. Maybe you could trade internship hours for costumes.

I am sure UCSD would be a great place to start.
