Can you/where do you get money for recycled can tabs from beer, pop cans, etc.?

Question

I heard that a gallon milk jug full of beer/pop/beverage can tabs can be turned in (to a recycling plant?) for money. If this is true, where do you take them and how much $ do you get?

Answer 1

i take my cans to the local metal re-cycler...heads up! you get more for the cans and tabs together than you do just for the tabs. last week i got .65 cents u. s. per pound. some places offer more, some offer less.

Answer 2

You can recycle and get some money for any aluminum materials including cans and tabs.

Pricing for aluminum scrap metal and other scrap metals can be found at http://www.demolition1.blogspot.com or at
