The HI-5 needs to go.  It's nearly impossible to find a recycling center these days and even when you do, you walk away wondering what happened.

When there was a recycle center near my home, I would always recycle about the same amount every time and would receive about $80.    The scale was right in your sight and you could see how many pounds of cans, etc that you were being paid for.

Now the scale is in the big truck out of sight and my same amount of recycled materials went from $80 to about $60.

Recycling is barely worth my time now days.
