Aluminum recycling is one of the most lucrative types of recycling. Organizations in the aluminum-production and -recycling industries often work with other businesses, community leaders, and individuals to promote increased use of industrial and curbside recycling programs. In addition to used drink cans, aluminum is recycled from products such as automobiles, window frames, wire, tubing, and electronics.

A highly sought-after metal due to the cost savings of recycling over producing it, aluminum is more valuable than any other item in the recycling bin. Many Americans waste aluminum by throwing the items made from or containing it into the trash, amounting to an estimated lost value of $700 million worth of aluminum annually. Recycling aluminum also saves energy; one beverage container can conserve enough power to listen to a complete album on a digital-music device.
