    Do they not bale the plastic/aluminum before it is sent back? Seems like a lot of potential to save on transportation costs if not.

      @@CompactorCrush NYS laws allow for bottle redemptions, so this facilty simply recovers materials back to the original producer, who then handles that part of the recycling process.

    Our South Windsor location has 14 baskets and other locations have 18. It's a hassle to program it

    Just curious why they sort the cans to go back to distributors, it seems that it would use a lot more energy sorting and shipping back than melting them for the aluminum?

      More value in sending back to the ORIGINAL producers who distributed them in the first place. Let THEM melt it, crush it, bale it. ♻️
