Why crush them at all?, just recycle them if they are not the returnables with deposits, thats what I do.

In my part of MN, places pay at least .10 more per pound crushed than uncrushed.

crushed cans take up 90% less space than uncrushed cans

Put the can on the floor, and use the foot can crusher, it works good as long as you have good heavy boots on. Seriously,Harbor Freight used to sell one, we have one at the shop, put a can in it,push down on handle, mashed can.

I crush about 500 lbs of cans a year with one like this. I attached a piece of gutter under it for a chute and they slide right into the collection bin. No muss no fuss no flying cans.

Most buyer who won't take crushed cans are those that have been bilked by lowlifes that added sand or such before crushing to increase weight.
Know your buyer and be honest,My guys a pro,uses an air blower separator,checks rejects and if suspicious deducts weight of culls and returns em.Sometimes it's just frozen backwash :(
