Are there any organizations in Canada that accept the pull tabs from pop cans?

Question

I am looking for a place or organization in Canada that accepts pop tops (pull tabs) from aluminum cans, such as pop or beer. I have been saving them for a while and wanted somewhere to donate, by either mail or dropping them off. I reside near Hamilton, so are there any local organizations i can do this? and or any where in canada i could mail them? thanks!!

Answer 1

Let me get this straight: you've been collecting useless trash for years, and now you want to drop your trash off somewhere in Canada?  Nice try buddy.

Answer 2

You could try checking with a local service club, such as the Lions, Rotary, etc.  Some of them collect the tabs to sell as scrap aluminum (the Lions throughout Alberta do, but I'm not sure about the rest of the country.)

Answer 3

check with a kidney specialist...maybe their office or they know of organization...i always thought the tabs went for kidney dialysis...good luck Friend!

Answer 4

Ronald McDonald houses will recycle the pull tabs:

But they are only valuable as scrap aluminum:
