From Trash to Treasure…
We’re helping local charities and ministries by collecting donations of recyclable cans & scrap metal from caring individuals and businesses.
How It Works
Your Trash Can Make a Difference
Do you or your business have scrap metal that you would like to donate for a good cause? Don’t let it end up in a landfill. Donate your scrap and help your community and the environment. From soda cans to cars, we take it all. No pick up is too small.
Schedule Pick-up Appointment
Contact Help Where You Can to schedule an appointment for pick up. We will weigh the donated cans and/or scrap metal and provide a tax deductible receipt for the total scrap price of donation. It is that easy!
Help Your Local Community
Acquired funds from donated scrap are given to reputable local charities or ministries of our choosing. The sacrificial giving from caring individuals helps to feed and clothe the poor and less fortunate in our community. It also provides scholarships to send children and teens to summer camps.
Donate Scrap for a Good Cause.
You may think that collecting soda cans may not amount to much. But, that is simply is not true. No amount is too small. Everything helps. However, you may be surprised that in your home or place of business is scrap that may be of monetary value. When in doubt, don’t throw it out. Call us instead!
Meet the Founders

Hey, thanks for checking us out! We are Byron and Missy Ness, our organization is called, “Help Where You Can”.
Byron has lived in Bradenton all his life and Missy (that’s me) grew up in South Amboy, NJ and moved to Bradenton 28 years ago. We have a great community (some pretty “sweet” beaches too,) and love to help people.
We believe that everyone would like to help in their local community in some way. A lot of times people don’t have money or time to help, but their heart still wants to help. You can make a difference with your trash. Yes, I did say, “your trash!” You can call us today and we will set a time and day to pick up your aluminum cans. This donation is tax deductible because we are a 501c. We will give you a receipt for your donation that can be used on your income tax.
This is also great for businesses too. If you have a business and want to help and get a tax deduction contact us!
We also take other scrap metal items.
Where is your donation going and why are we doing this?
Kids, we want to help kids. They are our next generation. We need to give them every advantage we can by teaching, training, building character, showing love and kindness in a safe and fun setting.
People in need around our community. There are many people that need that extra little help, it could be food, clothes, and household items. We are here to fund some of the local organizations, that provide these things.
We are also providing prayer for anyone that needs it.
We are Christians, followers of Jesus! God gave this vision to my husband and we are running with it. Would you join us, in reaching this community?
You can see the organizations we are supporting on our main page.
Our Vision is to join up with more local charities as our donations grow.
