Pop Can Tabs Recycled Collection Program
Did you know it takes 1,000 aluminum pop tabs to equal one pound? March of Dimes recycles the pop tabs at the local scrap metal dealer location, and receives 60¢ for every pound of metal. Only pop tabs only are accepted; no other metal should be included, as it will reduce the price we receive.
Proceeds from pop tab collections are used to benefit March of Dimes Assistive Devices Program.
Mailing pop tabs can become expensive, due to the weight of the package. It is more economical to drop them off at March of Dimes head office location.
March of Dimes Canada
10 Overlea Blvd.
Toronto, ON
M4H 1A4
Monday – Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
If you have a large supply of pop tabs, it may be more cost effective for you to cash them in at your local scrap metal dealer and then mail a cheque payable to "March of Dimes Canada" indicating that it is for the Pop-Tab Fund. Please include the name and address of the person or organization donating.
