Making Money from old paper

maka_2

Morning

Is it poss to make money from old waste paper?

calleyw

Don't know you need to look at what waste paper is going for per tonne.

And where would you store it and how would you transport.

Is there anywhere local you could ring to ask.

As most places are going to want a min of 500kgs to come and pick it up. Do you have any thing to bale it up with it.

Yours

Calley

It My Works Waste Paper They Just Throw Away Tons Of It A Year Becasue There Does Not Seem To Be A Collection In Our Area.
So They Said To Me If I Can Someone To Have It I Can Keep The Money.
I Have Around 20 Bin Liners At The Mo And That From The Start Of The Week Alone.
So I Assume I Can Make A Fair Amouny From It If I Can Get Shot Of It.
Where Would Be The Best Place To See How Much The Pay Per Kg
