Product Description
This is a great tool for crushing cans and keeping them out of sight. Simply lift the handle, insert the can and crush it. The flat can then falls into the large plastic drum. This thing is made of super tough plastic for long life. It is a pleasant light gray color.
It will never rust!
This is a great recycler for cafeterias, game rooms, company picnics, bars, tail gators, or just anywhere that aluminum cans build up. Not only does it keep housekeeping to a minimum but it also makes it easy to transport a lot of cans since they are flat. Just install a trash bag and you don't even have to handle nasty cans. Plus you can sell the cans and pay for the recycler.
For instance. Cans are selling for about 50 cents a pound right now. That works out to about 6.65 per bag of crushed aluminum cans. The unit will pay for itself in 9 bags of cans and makes a wonderful demonstration for school children concerning recycling. Not only are you doing the right thing for humanity but RECYCLING PAYS BACK CASH and you can prove it easily.
Makes a great fund raising tool also for any kind of event as you can easily tabulate the donations.
And everyone crushes their own cans so the work load is reduced.
Overall height is about 34" and it weighs about 15 lbs in the box. Will be shipped either Fedex or Parcel Post, whichever is less.
Note that this can crusher is designed for standard 12 oz. aluminum cans. Other sizes will not fit.

Well Worth It!,

This review is from: Large Can Crusher 400 Cans Recycle or Fundraiser
I bought a number of these a few years ago. We use the money raised to support a non-profit program for girls. We have placed several of them at our own properties and a couple out at local businesses. Here's what I like about them: (1) they hold up well, (2) with a little practice cans can be smushed so that they slide through the slot into the container without anyone having to touch the can, (3) because the container can only be accessed through the slot without removing the top we don't get all the extra garbage that gets thrown in many recycling containers, (4) because the can gets laid on it's side to be crushed, we don't get the half full cans of soda that get thrown in many recycling containers, (5) because of 3 and 4, the containers don't tend to attract bees as do other containers and (6)as was noted in the general write-up, the container can be lined and with the cans flattened the aluminum can be transported to the recycler without messing up your car. An additional benefit is that kids (and many grownups) enjoy using the crusher which decreases the number of cans that the organizers have to crush.

This is a demonstration of this type of aluminum can crusher recycler. The interesting thing about it is the large plastic can attached to the can crusher. You can see how easy it is to operate. Plus since you can line it with a large trash bag it stays pretty clean. Every so often just take the top off and rinse it off with a water hose. The can crusher is perfect for offices, schools, or any area where lots of people drink from cans. In the event that you need to replace the can crusher you can buy another one and install it yourself on the lid.

This review is from: Large Can Crusher 400 Cans Recycle or Fundraiser
This is easy to use and because it's self-contained there is no mess against a wall. The crushed cans slide right into the container. I gave it only 4 stars because one of the plastic bolts wants to work its way out over time if you don't position the aluminum can just so. Don't push it quite all the way back into the slot before crushing, or you will need more force and that causes more stress on the mechanism. Also, it's pretty pricey overall for a product that can't handle mixed-metal cans. Still, if you recycle a lot of aluminum cans (which I do), don't want to have to stomp every one, and don't want a mess in your garage, this is worth considering.
