Mainly paper, but the other stuff would be nice, i dont much care for the price of it, id just like to know if theres anywhere i could take it and make a buck

Paper and cardboard by me only .015 a pound not worth it! Put it in the citys blue recycling bin!
Plastic water bottles .30 a pound
Plastic milk jugs .10 a pound
Colored #2 plastic .02 a pound
They were taking glass for .06 a lb but just stopped taking it.
ABS plastic no one here buys so it can go in the blue recycling bin as well.

Yea, I just called them, finally found a place, and im just not liking $25 per ton, with a minimum of 500lbs. Looks like ill be sticking with car parts (which i cant find) appliances and what not haha.
