Rotary cutter blades ARE NOT BIODEGRADABLE! They will help clog the landfills. Like anything else metal, they shold be recycled in places that accept metal. I plan to give mine to a company that buys metal...but I do not expect to get cash for them. We need to become good stewards of the items we use and care for the earth so it will be a good place for future generations. We need to think twice before we put things in the garbage bag. No metal parts from old refrigerators, or oven racks or cookware. At this point in time we need to stop and ask ourselves if the things we are throwing away are bad for the environment. Many communities have special dates set to collect old appliances and computers and other electronic equipment. If am item will not rot or break down over years of being buried in the earth, it should not be sent to the landfills. HELP SAVE OUR PLANET for future generations.

I use an old prescription bottle that has a pop top. It's the perfect size to drop the blades in with no wiggle room. Haven't filled it up yet but taking it to the doctor's office for them to put in their sharps container sounds like a good idea.
