Title: How many beer cans did it take to make your trailer?
Post by: drdave on May 19, 2015, 07:36:41 PM
The internet consensus is that there are appoximately 32-35 aluminum beer cans/lb.   Using a conservative 32cans/lb. =  64000cans/ton.        My guesstimate is at least 50000 beer cans make up my 16DB.  Sure, I could use soda can math, but beer can math is inherently more fun.

I certainly did my part. Assuming, of course, they have some sort of landfill magic magnet that pulls aluminum out of the garbage stream from before we started recycling.
