Looks like they are holding the roof up.

Full cans ?

Maybe not as dumb as he looks. Rough estimate that is $600+ of cans if 5 cents deposit each. (I see 25 cans on the face layer of one bag x estimate the bag is twice as tall as it is wide x 10 bags).

If he has an easy source where they're already bagged such as the recycle bins in a bar, that's easy money.

But he's probably trying to avoid collapse of his sunroof.

I say double that estimate. Its like stacking round bales on a waggon. 2 rows side by side for the first 3 layers and a single on top for 19 bags total. Scrap the van while you are there and that's not a bad paycheck lol

What about the bags of cans they put inside before they started loading the roof ??/

Or they are hanging onto a rope (or the bags themselves) through the sunroof. :laughing:

Actually looking close one can see she is hanging onto the passenger grab handle... but it is more fun to make fun of the picture.

Around here there isn't a deposit. Cans only pay $0.38 per pound. Probably about $200 worth. My uncle saves all the beer cans from his local bar and I help him haul them off every couple months.

Same here, they don't pay crap. About 10 years ago I got army volunteered to store cans in my airplane hanger for a friend sons Boy Scout Troop. We had 2 trucks and a trailers worth. It paid less than $100. They had a set of Lincoln aluminum wheels that paid $80.

I said no the next year. It stunk up my hanger. I spent 4 hours with bleach and a hose, cost me $25 in gas, and was a general pain in the ask. I said get wheels if you want to mess with anything and I will make a donation if it keeps that mess off my hands.

When I moved to Iowa we had cans and bottles laying everywhere in ditches, median, around the lake in parks. Then, I think, beginning 2000 we had to pay 5 cent deposit for cans. In one season all cans and bottles picked up. When we went to a lake we had to bring plastic bags and our kids (then 6 and 9) would pick all cans they could find and return them for deposit. I don't remember how much money they made but it was substantial amount. Stores hate deposit but it had definitely positive effect.

Here too, it's rare to see many laying along the road any more. We periodically load up the back ourxtruck and take $60 -80 worth of cans and bottles back.

I do see plenty of people toss them in the garbage at work and can never understand why they want to throw away the nickel...

I'd have thought "What are the odds ?"........ but apparently fishing trawlers do snag submarines, sometimes with fatal results.

Our provincial government has cleverly mandated a $.10 per container "deposit". I say "cleverly" because you only get $.05 per container back when it is returned. I save up all my cans and bottles and donate them to the local Habitat for Humanity Re-Store, since the return on these is too low to make it worth my while to take them back to the recycler.
