  1. My city accepts #1 and #2 plastics, aluminum and metal cans, magazines, plastic milk bottles, newspapers, magazines and glass jars and we have to pay for the service.

    Wal-Mart accepts plastic shopping bags.

    PetSmart accepts empty printer cartridges and uses the money for animal rescue.

    Dell gives you a bag when you order printer cartridges so you can mail the empty ones to them.  I don't know what they do with them.

    Our local 4-H accepts batteries, cell phones, but I prefer giving working cell phones to a woman's shelter.

    Ronald McDonald House collects aluminum pull-tabs.

    Just about anything can be recycled if you can find a place that will take the item.


  2. Whew!!!! too bad we all don't recycle all of these things.
