sounds good, but i would say don't crush them...what do i know, i work at a redemption center
i know it takes the fun out of it, but how i look at it.....the local scrap yard gives 30 cents for every pound of aluminum....cans are NOT that heavy....here in MA we get 5 cents for every can and bottle (glass and plastic)....i would say having 5 cents for any of them would be better than getting only cans...but hey, what do i know
also, it is very very very very messy. definetly have them deposit into a plastic bag or something....the smell/feel of old soda/alcohol is extremely disgusting. and believe me, touching it isn't fun either(i've been elbow deep in crushed cans and bottles....ew)
