ABSTRACT:
A manually-operated device specifically for crushing cans, such as aluminum cans, includes a relatively heavy tramping element which is connected to an elongated handle, whereby when the tramping element is held over a can and driven downward, the can is crushed.
The tramping element may include either a groove or rib for venting air that may become compressed in the can as the can is crushed.
