hi to recycling enthusiast,
I've been in scrap trading activity, buying plastic, waste carton, used paper, ferrous and non-ferrous, part time. I have my full time job at the moment and I'm setting time frame onto when I'm going to let go my job and operate my dream business. Anybody
out there who are willing to discuss about this lucrative business and let us share ideas that would enrich us all. And also, it's been quite a while already I'm surfing on the net regarding electronic recycling which I believe have great potential, imagine people around the world the amount of electronics been disposed year after year, but I can't find resources that would satisfy me.
Secondly, this is my first post. I love to tackle and I am very much open to other business ideas. Who knows this will make us millionares!!!

If you have clutter and/or items around your house you dont want to be bothered with selling or taking to the dump - then Freecycle is for you at www.freecycle.org for a Freecycle group in your area. Freecycle is international. Recycle items to avoid overfilling the garbage dumps and make space in your home. One man's trash is another man;s treasure" truely applies here. I have given away so many things that I almost trashed that someone wanted and even came and carted it away. You can put in requests, too, and from there I received a free handicapped electric lift recliner worth over $400.00 someone didnt need anymore! The only requirement is that you cant give away forbidden items like explosives and such and everything must be FREE, you cant barter, exchange or sell. Try it yourself!

In the UK we have a saying "where theres muck there's brass". There has always been money to be made by scrap dealing or recycling, I think these days even more so given the environmental benefits.
I understand that the price of many metals has gone up recently due to China's huge demand for resources, this can only be good news for those dealing in scrap metals. Recycling of old PCs could be an excellent business, although I think it may need some specialist knowledge to be able to extract the materials safely and effectively.
