Why do charities collect can tabs?
The idea is for organizations, clubs and/or groups to collect those tabs that you pull to open a soda can. Although the whole aluminum can is valuable, the pop tabs are easier to collect and easier to transport. The money collected from the soda tabs benefits the families assisted by the Ronald McDonald House.
Are the tabs on aluminum cans worth more?
Aluminum from recycled cans, including the pull tabs, is the same as the one that is smelted from virgin ore. Simply put, the can itself is equally as valuable as the pull tab. Note also that the whole can by far outweighs the pull tab. A pound of aluminum equals approximately 1000 pull tabs or 34 empty cans.

Where can I donate a can of tabs?
While a handful of charitable concerns (including McDonald’s Ronald McDonald House and Shriners Hospitals for Children) accept donations of can tabs, said tabs fetch such groups no more than the items’ ordinary recycle value (more on that later in this article).
What’s the best way to sell pop cans?
The colored tabs aren’t as common as the silver ones, so selling them in smaller quantities can help you move inventory faster. Size is also important when sorting the pop can tabs you’re selling. Some energy and other drinks have the super big tabs. Keep “regular” or common sized tabs separate from the bigger tabs when you organize.
Where can I cash a check payable to cash?
If you prefer to cash the check instead of depositing it to your account, you may have to go in person to the bank that the funds are drawn on. Find the bank’s name on the front of the check, and contact the nearest branch to see if they will cash the check. Remember that banks may refuse checks payable to cash or require extra hold times.
