Beer kegs. They get $30 a piece for them.

I also read this past week of an announced plan by all the US breweries to inform all scrap yards that the only way they will see "legally scrapped" kegs is if a brewery representative or official paperwork is with the kegs when they are turned in for scrap. This means bulk recycling and not a piecemeal couple of kegs every month or so. Sounds like the scrap yard who gets the business from the regional brewery will be sitting pretty.
