Are can tabs better to recycle than cans?
No. Often local charities encourage communities to collect can tabs and donate them for various causes. This is a great way to engage a community, and the tabs are fun and easy to collect. But their value is no different to a recycler than the rest of the can. It’s all the same aluminum. For the sake of the environment, when you’re collecting tabs, don’t forget to recycle the rest of the can!
