CANS FOR CASH CIRCULARITY CENTERS
The Cans for Cash program, brought to you by the aluminum beverage can recycling partnership of Every Can Counts and Replenysh aims to boost recycling, reduce litter and landfill waste, and enhance local economies with direct cash payouts for participants who recycle empty aluminum beverage cans. The initiative will include five Circularity Centers in Arkansas, Florida, Illinois, and Mississippi. Cans for Cash targets communities near major waterways with limited or no recycling access.
Bring Your Cans to Blytheville, Arkansas
Cans for Cash Circularity Center
Location: 400 Elm St, Blytheville, AR 72315
Hours of Operation: Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. CST (hours subject to change based on operations and volume of collections)
To make sure materials are accepted for recycling, participants must:
- Clean, empty, and dry all cans, bottles, and containers. There is no need to remove labels, tabs, or bottle caps. If containers contain fluids, liquid weight will be deducted from the weighted total.
- Separate used aluminum beverage cans from PET #1 plastic bottles. Only used aluminum beverage cans will receive digital payouts.
Blytheville residents who drop off used aluminum beverage cans will receive payment from the Cans for Cash Circularity Center after being weighed on-site. A digital receipt will be emailed to each participant detailing the total amount, with the ability to receive the money in several ways including digital gift card, PayPal, or direct deposit to a bank account. The process eliminates the handling of cash and makes for a safe, secure, and efficient processing experience.
