Driving to work one morning I crossed over a small concrete bridge that had aluminum guardrails attached to the side. Two days later I drove over this same bridge and now the guardrails have been cut off and removed on just one side. Now I can understand at .75 cents/lb people saving up their aluminum cans and taking them to the recycler for cash instead of just putting them out to the curb to end up in a landfill. But taking aluminum guard rails and trying to get cash for them. How do you explain that to the buyer! Do you have to actually cut it up and make it look like just chunks of garbage? I know times are rough but good Lord.. think of public safety. Next we are going to see people taking down road signs.. they are aluminum too.
