PAY ONE OF YOUR UTILITY BILLS BY RECYCLING THIS
EVERY MONTH

  • Ever looked in your trash can and asked yourself
    What if I could get paid for all this stuff.
    Surely someone can do something with it! Well,
    youre right. All too often the trash we create
    can be recycled and even earn you a pretty
    penny too. Imagine if you could, say, pay off one
    of your utility bills just by collecting and
    taking in your unwanted trash?
  • The good news is you can. As recycling becomes
    more cost-effective and accessible to the public,
    you as the consumer and provider of waste have an
    opportunity to benefit. So what trash items give
    you the biggest return? Consider recycling these
    common household items every month and pay your
    utility bills while youre at it.

Aluminum Cans
  • If youre a soda addict, or if you know someone
    that is, youll appreciate that the empty cans
    can pile up pretty quickly. If you dont already,
    you can cash these cans in at recycle depots and
    get money back. So instead of tossing them in the
    recycling bin, bag them up, take them in, and
    cash out on your thirst quenching.

4
Plastic Bottles
  • Just like their aluminum counterparts, plastic
    soda bottles can be equally as valuable to
    recycle at your local depot. Depending on size,
    some bottles can earn you up to 0.20, which adds
    up quickly when you start collecting them. Make
    sure theyre washed out before you take them in
    it makes them easier to recycle. 

5
Glass Bottles
  • Glass bottles of many shapes and sizes are
    accepted at recycling depots as well. Cash-back
    rates are similar to plastic bottles and also
    vary with size. Although these small refund
    amounts may seem trivial, theres money in
    numbers, and when you receive a refund for all
    your bottles and cans, youll be well on the way
    to paying off a pesky utility bill this month!

Human Hair
  • Theres bottles, and then theres human hair. You
    wouldnt believe it, but theres a high-paying
    market for human hair. If youve got long hair or
    the ability to grow it fast, then you could make
    some serious cash. Rates can range from 200 to
    well over 1,500 depending on shade, length, and
    condition of your locks. Sites such as
    buyandsellhair.com, thehairtrader.org, or
    hairwork.com are a few to check out.

Cooking Oil
  • If you see yourself as a master chef in the
    kitchen, then hold onto your wasted cooking oil.
    Recycling centers are available that will pay you
    for your used cooking oil turning it into
    useful products such as biodiesel and heating
    oil. Winter is an especially lucrative time for
    cooking oil recycling, due to the increased
    demand for home heating. Its certainly a
    potential money-earner to pay off those monthly
    utility bills, but its a fairly new practice.
    Youll have to do some detective work to find
    local recycling depots via the newspaper or the
    internet.

Wine Corks
  • Imagine all those wine bottles youre able to
    recycle after that Saturday night party, and then
    imagine how many corks you saw lying around as
    well. You may not have realized, but cork is a
    heavily-used resource which can be recycled.
    Unfortunately, recycling cork wont make you
    rich, but it could definitely take the edge off
    your monthly utility bill. So where can you
    cash-in your corks? Try places online like eBay,
    Etsy, local craft businesses, etc. There are also
    some recyclers who will pay you for corks and
    actually recycle them for re-use. This option
    normally requires you to have a substantial
    number of corks to offer, though.
  • Recycling can definitely take the edge off your
    finances and pay one of your utility bills, if
    youre willing to take the time to collect and
    deposit your prized rubbish in exchange for cash.
    Its a great option that will save you money and
    help reduce your environmental footprint. Its a
    small but real way to increase your contribution
    to a greener future, and get rewarded for your
    efforts.
