Small tuna cans are made out of aluminum, and also recycle easily. The actual composition of the metal varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. Before you collect tuna cans to take to the recycling center, place a small magnet on the can. If the magnet sticks, it is not aluminum but steel. If the can is steel, it should be placed into your steel can recycling bin if available.

The U.S. recycling rate for aluminum cans declined to 49.4 percent in 2016, its lowest level in years. The consumer recycling rate for aluminum cans was down from 54.5 percent a year earlier.
