Answer 13

You can sometimes bring them back to the drycleaners, or consignmnet, thrift shops.  However if you have other metals do yourself and the environment a favour and bring to a metal recycler/slavage yard.  They pay you to unload your vehicle which is why so many in Ottawa go around collecting old barbeques from curbside.  Lots of weight, lots of money in your pocket.

I put my wire ones in my blue recycling bin at home and there was no problem.

do you not have recycle bins at home?

we have one general waste bin (grey), one cardboard & garden waste bin (green) and one for plastics, metals and tins (blue)  these are supplied by our local council and are mandatory ie we do not have a choice if we want to recycle we have to!

I just put them in the blue bin
