Recycling cans in California

Question

We are stationed at Ft. Irwin California, We have Collected about 800 pounds of cans, our recycling center in Barstow, CA pays about 1.65 a pound, considering how much we have does anyone know where we could get a better rate, it seems other areas get better rates.

Answer 1

You COULD get a better rate, but with the cost of gas, it would quickly become uneconomical. Oh, and sorry about Ft. Irwin, I've been there!

Answer 2

go to www.earth911.org, they can help you locate local recycle centers, there should be contact info so you can call and see what the various rates are.
