Can you get any money for recycling cans?

Question

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?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Some cans say that you can get 5 cents per can in California, but I've never done it.
