Some parts of the country charge by the can, and charge a lot at that. So using a compacter to get down to one can a week can definitely be worthwhile. One note--crushing glass can be a little hazardous to the people who have to handle the bags since broken shards of glass tend to poke through. Betsy Cvetic ihnp4!drutx!eac
