Home Recycling For Thrift Or Profit


How to recycle waste for the maximum amount of money is what interests me. Oh, it does help the ecosystem too, but give me the money!

Until recently I thought that recycling houses was the most profitable idea - buy houses that tennants have destroyed, and live there while you renovate, then resell at a large profit.

Recently however I heard about recycling cell phones. Electric components in land fill are highly toxic so you can feel very virtuous while raking in the money for recycling them.

Recycling Kids

No, I'm not proposing putting them in the compost heap - I'm suggesting that they should be shown how to earn some extra pocket money. For instance, they can recycle can and other aluminum scrap.

For slightly older kids you can try recycling containers made of wood, and the palettes that bricks are delivered on to building sites. Remove the nails carefully, and make simple wooden toys that your kids can practice their salesmanship on. Oh, it won't make them a fortune, but it will teach them things that will be useful all their lives.

Teenagers With Utility Vehicles

If you are a teenager you can impress your friends by making money from selling computers that you pick up for free from the annual rubbish collection.

After all, you've learned about computers at school, and fixing computers is mostly just unplugging a faulty component and plugging in another that you scrounge from another free computer. When you've finished put the unwanted remains back out for collection.

Often a computer is in working condition. When Windows Vista attracts someone, they want it, but the salesman tells them that their old computer is too slow, with too little memory to install Vista. They buy a better computer and throw out the old one.

Can you sell the old one for $1000? No! Can you sell it for one hundred dollars? Probably. It didn't cost you anything so isn't recycling computers worth it to you?

Teenagers And Fit Adults:

You make a profit by buying cheap and selling dear. Right?!

How would it be to buy for nothing - as in recycling? You can't beat that - or can you? If you are fit enough and have a small truck or utility vehicle you can put leaflets in local letter-boxes offering to cart away their old furniture etc. that is just taking up valuable storage space. You charge them $25 and make it clear to them that you will only take good quality stuff.

What have you done? You've got your stuff for less than nothing! They are paying you to take it away. What about salesmanship and where to recycle? There are used furniture shops that will buy all the furniture that you take to them without any salesmanship. Scrap buyers will take all your metal scrap. Again, they have to make a profit on the price they pay you.

Oh, if you are a good salesman you could get more than the miserable price that they will give you, but remember you have been paid to cart the stuff away. If you were a good salesman you would be holding down a lucrative job, instead of doing all the hard physical work of loading furniture onto your vehicle.

You can sell smaller and more valuable items on eBay.

Recycling waste is a matter of opinion. Waste is the opinion of the person getting rid of such things as metals scrap. But someone else will probably want to buy it.

Home Recycling

This used to be the most lucrative recycling idea that I knew. It is still just as good as ever, but I've found something better.

You buy a house for next to nothing because it has been trashed by tennants. You recycle it, making it look good without doing any structural improvements, and sell it at a profit. You live in it while you do the repairs, so you don't have the expenses of rent or mortgage to worry about.

How to recycle waste for enormous profit.

So far I've told you about waste recycling ideas that have the following disadvantages

* Salesmanship needed

* Physical fitness needed

* Utility vehicle and drivers licence needed

* Technical skill needed

You can recycle mobile phones for vast sums of money. Even if you are 95 years old you are still fit and strong enough to carry a mobile phone, and no technical skill or salesmanship is needed.
