    Contact the state for details. A guy down the road from my house has a drinking container redemption center and made over 150,000 per year. He quit after ten years and now lives someplace warmer. If your state doesn’t have a returnable law, try to get them to. In Maine, the state makes money on the cans people throw out and on the aluminum that they bring in. Jobs are created in rural areas and there is less trash along the road. For the poor kids, there is a ready source of a small income picking up cans along the road from those who do throw them out.

    Krys,
    I can provide you with alot of info because I was working on this and then suffered some health problems that delayed me with proceeding. Send an e-mail outside the group and I will provide you with a variety of info and my phone number.
