THE Recycling Thread
Posted: Sat 01 Dec 2007, 20:20:01
A quick search shows me that scrap Aluminum is going for about 50 cents (USD), and it takes about 32 cans to make a pound. Now I don't go through a lot of cans, maybe 5-10 a week, but I wonder if it is worth saving and crushing them. I could throw them in a garbage can in the shed.
Is anyone saving cans? To what end? Is the plan to resell them regularly for scrap or keep them to trade for food if money losses it's value?
I thought that some cars have aluminum engine blocks? you could get a lot more scrap from just one old junker. Maybe these have already all been scraped?
Burn aluminum!!
