Baled Used Aluminum Water Bottle Cans from Japan

Baled recyclable aluminum cans from bottled water brands, compressed for transport to scrap metal recovery facilities. These post-consumer containers are classified as aluminum waste and scrap under tariff item 7602.00.00, as they are no longer fit for their original purpose and are destined for remelting.

Import Tips

• Confirm the cans are free of liquids and debris before shipping to avoid CBSA delays

• Be aware that the tariff item applies to waste and scrap, so the goods must not be usable as containers

• Document the recycling process to support the classification
