Kewaskum, WI – Neighbors in Allenton, Slinger, Kewaskum, West Bend and the rest of Washington County who have saved their aluminum cans the entire year, coming up during Earth Week will be the time to turn them in at A&W Iron and Metal, 7588 Otten Lane.
This is the 25th year A&W Iron and Metal has been celebrating Earth Week, Monday, April 17 through Saturday, April 22, and quite a few neighbors save specifically for this time of year.
“We’ll get a couple people that turn in over 1,000 pounds,” said Lana Alexandra, co-owner of A&W Iron and Metal.
“They’re pickers and crush their cans and put them in heavy-duty plastic bags. They make good money and it’ll take them several days to bring in their collection.”
