Where can I recycle magazines for money?

Where & how can I recycle my old magazines?

• I googled this question and everything that showed up was tips on how to recycle like dropping them off at doctor's offices, passing them on to friends or using them for crafts. The thing is, many of them are old (early 2000's to present) so I doubt any of my friends want them, and a lot of them don't belong in doctor's offices due to nudity and vulgarity (Rolling Stone, Blender, Spin, Interview, a bunch of celebrity gossip mags, etc). Also, many of them have pages ripped out or cut up from when I used them to make collages and other crafts. I can not throw them out, I would be filled with guilt! At the same time, I'm cleaning out my room and don't want them around anymore. A lot of other search results said many locations do not allow you to recycle magazines with newspapers. If this country is promoting recycling and saving energy, why the hell is it so hard to find somewhere to bring these old magazines!? Are there specific places I can bring them? Please help! -please don't give me more "ideas" on how to "use" my old magazines! I just want an answer on where to bring them so they can be recycled.

• Answer:

  well I recycle mine by donating them to the library if they have an area that sells books. if not don't school's have dumps that are for magazines and paper and you could also call your local garbage company and ask where you can recycle them
