Recycling is easy but knowing what you can recycle can be a headache if you don't ask the right questions. As everyone knows you can recycle newspaper, cans and glass bottles. But what about broken electrical cables, random computer parts and old car parts? And where do you take things? Off loading recyclable items is rather easy but if you want to get paid for the items then you need to do some digging.
Many places have started E-waste programs that allow you to drop off certain electronics but they have to meet requirements and it is strictly donation only. Google your area and recycling then start calling around if you don't see a price list or if the items you have aren't on the price list. The prices lists contain information on items or types of metals that the businesses accept and how much they pay you for those items. The most common form of measurement is in pounds.
There is no reason for you to pay to dump items that you are able to recycle. Even if you don't recycle for money you will still save space and money when disposing of the items.
