My LBS recycles metal, plastic and cardboard/paper.
Aluminum in particular is easy to recycle \[saves about 95% of the energy to create new AL\] and about 33% of aluminum in North America now comes from recycled sources. Interestingly for MTBers anodizing aluminum does not affect recycling so that's a great finish option.
