The best way for making money from recycling is by going to a recycling center that pays for items like bottles, cans and newspapers. If you wish to expand your collection of recyclable items, you could ask your neighbors to give you their old items or appliances. You can do this by putting up signs or advertisements in your area, where you can arrange to pick up the recyclable items from your neighbor's homes. 

• Be on the lookout for old or reused computers and PC monitors, because these items can actually be upgraded for re-use. The screens, memory cards, circuit boards and other components can also be resold or recycled. Organizations like UsedComputer.com for example, purchase old PC's and refurbish them for resale. Some recycling facilities also buy used ink printer cartridges.

You may sell used furniture pieces, CD's, audio or video players, books, clothes and other used items at the local flea market or junk dealer. Look for a store or outlet in your community which pays for used goods and items.
