Just wondering why the going rate for aluminum cans is more in California than where i live in Texas and why i can't buy the aluminum and hall it for profit to another state for their value?

Well, you can but you would probably burn your profit in fuel cost . We have a company here that buys cans and makes them into 1000 lb bundles/blocks and hauls them to a recycling plant for reuse in other products. They make the money by buying low and selling when the price jumps. That's what i do i save my cans for a year and cash them in when the price is up . I have even seen a story, now get this where a grandma that could not afford to by a pool built one for the local kids with cans she collected it took five years but she built a full size neighborhood pool with a club house. Just by collecting cans. We also have around here yards that buy wooden pallets to recycle for reuse/sale them again for shipping freight. There is tons of opportunities in the scrap/recycling business.

You can do that. I have a friend in Arizona who takes cans to California.
