Can I put alminum in with cans for recyling?

I was wondering if I could put aliminum foil in the same bag as soda cans for recycling down the road?

    That depends upon the recycling that location is doing.
    If all you get paid is for the price of scrap metal then yes.
    If your government imposes a deposit on beverage containers and you are redeeming the cans for this deposit then the answer would be no. In that case the beverage containers would need to be kept separate from other scrap metal that you are recycling.

    Sure you can its all the same!

    I do that, and my recycling center has never said anything to me about it. They just weigh it all together. So I’m assuming it’s fine.
