Here is a brief break-down of the value of recyclables:

Recyclables... containers marked "CA CRV" should NOT be crushed. If they are, machines cannot determine if they have a CA CRV. These containers can, however, still be "cashed in" by weight.

We now know that the current weight for non CA CRV glass is currently .102 cents per pound. This is a good price, we recycled 480 pounds of liquor bottles (about 4 large trash bags full) from the Global Green party with a value of $48.00.

Here is the current per pound value of other materials:
(materials are a commodity and price varies as demand varies)

Aluminum: $1.55/lb (it's very light)
Plastic #1: .90/cents/ lb
Plastic #2: .51 cents/ lb.
Glass: .102/lb.

How about putting a sign up at your office or apartment building saying "Please recycle your cans and bottles - we're donating them to Recycle A Life!"  And then be the point person for your office and take all those cans and bottles every week!

Don't forget - THE LA MARATHON IS SUNDAY - check out the street closures to make sure you won't be affected and can make it to brunch!
