Question

How much do you get for recycling aluminum per poud in west virginia?

Answer 1

The amount varies by location and by week. Last summer that local can muncher was giving 45 cent per pound but the scrap metal recycler was paying 85 cent per pound.

This article by the Aluminum Association gives a price of 80 cents per pound for aluminum. It also talks about how charities and thieves have become interested in aluminum recycling due to the high price.

Earth911 desinates places that purchase your aluminum with "Commercial Drop Off".  I found three such locations in WV.  You can call them to ask what their rates are this week.
