Collectors are paid for the cans they collect, but prices are determined by three different processes:
1. Where practical, cans are collected (at a lower price) from collectors.
2. Better prices are offered for collectors to deliver to our branches.
3. Best prices are offered to collectors to deliver their baled cans to our branches.
Assistance:
Bags: These can be supplied by Collect-a-Can. A typical Collect-a-Can bag will hold about 30kg of loose cans (approximately 1000 cans).
Baling assistance: Balers may be loaned to collectors who can supply ten tons of cans or more per month (please check with your nearest branch).
Transport assistance: Please check with your nearest branch the availability of transport to have your cans collected, as well as the price you will get when Collect-a-Can collects from you.
