Question: how much money can you make collecting bottles and cans?
Answer: It is the headquarters of a full or part time job that pays poorly and is grueling work, but is open to anyone, anytime. Among those approaching it like a full time job, recyclers at the Community Recycling Center earn $30-$50 per day. That equates to 3 to 5 trash bags filled with around 700 bottles and cans.
