lauradi7dwI'm in the process of clearing out a couple of upstairs drawers and the basement tool bench. For a long time, there was a discount on one's car insurance based on T ridership. At some point, you were supposed to send in a year's worth of passes to prove it. We must have missed some years, because I have many many old T passes, including the original paper ones. Lots of buttons of the slogan style, not the clothing fasteners (the stash of clothing buttons is with the sewing notions). Can one recycle them? Is there anywhere that would want them? I'm keeping some, but have lots that I no longer want, including duplicates of First night buttons.
With all the nails and screws and stuff on the workbench is one red drawer pull. After considerable thought, I realized that it came from an old cardboard file cabinet that has long since been replaced with a more permanent version. If I had a drawer that needed to be pulled in a red way, it would work fine, but I don't. Could I donate it somewhere? I found three non-functional garage door remotes. Can they be repaired or recycled?

Aluminum is highly prized; I was dropping off some aluminum scrap at the town's place and there was a guy who was just taking all the aluminum from the pile and was pleased with mine. What are buttons made of? Steel?
