Aluminium can recycling is something that we are passionate about. Each year, too many cans end up in landfill that could otherwise have been recycled and reused. The next time you finish a favourite beverage, think twice before throwing the can into the bin.
Although it’s possible to bring in cans as you use them, we highly recommend holding onto them until you’ve got a considerable collection. This is because the amount you will receive per can is quite low – it’s all about the weight – so a larger delivery will ensure the most cash for cans.
At Your Scrap Metal, we accept all kinds of aluminium cans (regardless of whether they once contained soft drink, alcohol or food). As aluminium is such a popular metal that can be used over and over again, we feel it is important to correctly recycle one of the more common products it produces.
Why should I sell scrap?
Unfortunately, close to one million cans find their way into landfill each and every year – all of them could be recycled and put back into circulation, ensuring that we aren’t prematurely depleting this valuable natural resource.
On top of this, you will also make a tidy little profit for yourself. It is incredibly easy to collect and recycle cans, and if you are committed to doing your bit for the environment you have made the right decision.
What are cans worth?
It is important to remember that cash for can prices can change on a daily basis and that they are dependent on a number of factors. You will always make more money if you recycle a few kilos at a time. For more information on current prices, contact the Your Scrap Metal team today.
