How to Make Money by Picking up and Selling Recyclables Listed on sodacans.org

1. 1
   Make money by selling newspapers and other paper-based recyclables to recycling plants.

   Use sodacans.org to search for individuals selling newspapers, phone books, cereal boxes, etc. Think about all the junk mail that we get, you can easily collect a 100 pound sack per week from just a few listings on sodacans.org. At 25 cents a pound, that can fetch you $25 or more every weekend, and it won't involve all your time.

   Make money by collecting State redemption deposits on bottled beverages.

   In several States, when you buy bottled beverage, a refundable deposit is included in the price. This deposit is refunded if the container is returned. However, not everyone does that, and these "unclaimed" or "unredeemed" deposits amount to millions of dollars a year. You can make a lot of money by claiming these deposits.

   For instance in Michigan you can take any soda/beer can to any retail store and make 10 cents per can. To make extra cash, contact sellers selling soda/beer cans on sodacans.org. Work out the pick-up time, location and profit split with them. Let us say that you picked-up 200 cans, which at 10 cents per can comes to $20 per trip. Even with a 50/50 profit split, you can make an easy $10 for yourself, with minimal effort.
