Answer 1

As long as they have a 1 or a 2 on them you can take them to the jackson city recycle bins or summit township. I don't think they can have the lids and they won't pay you for them. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

If the bottle say refund X amount then you can get paid for them.  Usually at grocery stores.  If not then Grocery stores usually have recycle bins in the parking lot.

Answer 3

WHAT STATE DO YOU LIVE IN?

Look on the side of the bottle and see if your state is listed...look at a Coke or Pepsi bottle and see if your state is listed...CA pays 5 cents each for all plastic bottles under 24 oz. and 10 cents each for ones 24 oz and over.

If your state doesn't pay, call the Boy Scouts and see if they will pick them up...GOOD LUCK TO YOU!

This website may be able to help you to locate a center if you live in the USA.

Some places compensate for the recycling, but it is better to call ahead and check first.

I hope that this helps.

Answer 5

Call your County Conservation Office, every county should have one.  They can tell you where to take them.  I'm not sure about selling them, but i know a man who collects aluminum cans and gets paid for them so ...  Call the county offices, they should be able to tell you where to look.  Your township might also have a recycling center.

Answer 6

I would take them to a nearby Recyling Center and if there is none around where you live......then i would go to a nearby recyling bin. I think that they do pay for recyling...

Answer 7

i think you go to shaws and theres a machine.........u get a couple of $ for doing this.............is it lik .05 ¢ per bottle................

Answer 8

Doesn't your township have a recycling program?  If you don't know, call your township and ask them!  They would know where to take them and if you can get any money for them, although I do not think they will pay anything for plastic.

Answer 9

bring them to your local landfill, dump, of recycling center. they only pay you at the centers.
