in regards to plastic my yard will take an appliance such as a bread maker fOr example whole or broken dOwn so that means they
take plastic too. They actually have a plastic bin among other drop off bins in the parking lot. They dump the plastics into the steel shred pile. So if i have a trailer full of shred and broken pieces of plastic and Styrofoam i will throw that into a trash can and dump it on the load because its all part of the whole item I'm scrapping.
i have steel cans and food cans smashed seperate from the aluminum. are you saying if i take both the steel can and non ferrous metals along with the aluminum, even the aluminum will drop in half?

what exactly do you mean. should i just take the aluminum to scrap alone when i do?
