ABSTRACT:
A can crushing apparatus includes a base and a receiving bin with an end wall and a pair of side walls extending upwardly from the base. The base has an aperture positioned adjacent to the end wall. A drive assembly is mounted to the base. The drive assembly includes an arm having a free end that extends into the receiving bin and moves toward the end wall when the drive assembly is actuated in a first direction and away from the end wall when the drive assembly is actuated in a second direction. A can is positioned in the receiving bin and crushed between the free end of the arm and the end wall when the drive assembly is actuated in the first direction. The can then falls through the aperture when the drive assembly is actuated in the second direction.
