Search and cease sure warrant at a recycling plant who was actually grinding down stolen plastic. Reporter they found stack after stack of the stolen trays as high as 8 feet. They found the grinder and huge containers of ground up trays ready to be shipped out at a big profit. Roughly about 1500 to 2200pound containers. Reporter the raid was a result of a fourweek undercover operation that discovered thieves stealing the trays from behind local food marks and Corner Stores<\/a> during daylight and evening hours. Recycling Companies Like<\/a> this one pay 25 to 30 cents a pound for the valuable plastic product. Many of the trays are clearly labeled by the owners but the grinding process makes the material untraceable. The trays get ground up, the grinds get boxed up and shipped out. Its melled down and recycled and used into making toys and other things and oftentimes basically sold back and made into the same shelves theyre getting a profit off of over and over again. Reporter police say the trays found at this warehouse belonged so several companies, including bakery, canada dry, cocacola, pepsi and various dairy companies.
