Can I recycle tiny objects, such as paperclips, staples, etc?

Question

how about paperclips, staples, etc?

Answer 1

i recycle small metal objet and they take them it is fine dos not matter what size

Answer 2

Put them in the recycling bin.  The worst that happens is they can't use them.

Answer 3

I don't think that you can recycle things that small.

Answer 4

Put them in with all the big stuff anyway. They separate it at the factory and if they can't take it they will throw it out. Doesn't hurt to try.

Or save them all up so you have a good size pile (if you have room) and contact any scrap metal recyclers around you to see if they will take them.

Answer 5

. QUIT wasting time and effort on small stuff ! How about worrying about tin cans, old refrigerators, cars, newspapers, electronic stuff that is a BIG polluter?  

You remind me of my dad who ran a hardware store.  While he was counting the nuts and bolts, his clerks were stealing hundreds of $$ from the cash register.

  Get your priorities straight! Don't sweat the small stuff, and don't smell the rough stuff. .
