That's some leg-work you need to do for yourself............

I have a plastic recycler that takes my plastic but he won't buy it. Been looking for a plastic buyer for five years with no luck, you have to have tons before they'll buy it.
Yeah every single one Ive talked to in the past week wants 15000 pounds or more to pay maybe $.20 a pound for it. Thats alot of warehouse space for $3000 if you ask me.Quote:

Hope this helps.
Wish there was one here in Kansas, I've checked into it and the freight would destroy any profit less could find a hook up in the state
