ABSTRACT:
A crusher is provided for crushing typical beverage cans to shorten their height for facilitating disposal and recycling. An upright wall-mounted magazine carries a column of cans disposed with their lengths horizontally and the cans move gravitationally, one by one, into a crushing chamber in which a manually operated plunger functions to crush each can axially to a shortened length enabling it to drop from the crushing chamber into a waiting receptacle.
