Our Hamlin Redemption Center Reviews
We are committed to being the best Hamlin redemption center. With the cleanest centers and friendliest staff we can proudly call ourselves Western NY’s best locally owned.
Stormed out? While carrying 6 bags of cans and a box of bottles? Right. Did your video show your employee playing on his phone and waiting for me to get to the counter to finally look up and address me?
Hamlin Bottle Return FAQ
Who we are?
The redemption center market in Rochester has been ignoring a key element to business, customer service. At Upstate, we vow to bring the same fast, friendly & clean customer service that you have come to expect from other business’. After you use one of our centers you will never use another or touch a bottle return machine again! We guarantee it.

What do we accept?
We buy back anything with a NYS 5 cent redemption mark on it. If you are unsure, check the lable of your bottle or can; or the top of the can. It will have the states that you can redeem the item in listed.

What don't we accept?
- Non-deposit bottles & cans
- Gatorade
- Iced Teas
- Juice
- Milk, etc. Our buyer’s plant does not process non-deposits.
- Kegs
- Growlers
- Water cooler jugs
- Crumpled or crunch items
- Wrapperless items
Why no crushed or wrapperless items?
We have to sell the bottles and cans back based on average bag capacity per the size of the item. So, if we put crushed cans in our bags we are putting in a lot more than the average bag capacity and lose money. If we don’t have wrappers to identify the item, we can’t put it with the correct bags to be properly accounted.

How do we make money?
We make our money off the resale, not off of you. The New York Bottle Bill set forward in 2009 gives a handling fee to any redemption center registered in New York State. We are paid to handle your recycling for you and for the state.

What is the Bottle Bill?
The New York State Returnable Containers Act aka, the Bottle Bill, is the state legislation that governs redeemable containers. Passed in 1982 and reformed in 2009, it lays out the guidelines for depositable recycling in New York State.
See this link for complete info on the New York Bottle Bill.
Do we take all recycling?
In a way, Our Hamlin Redemption Center can recycle the cardboard and plastic bags that you bring your recycling in. But, we cannot accept cardboard and plastic in bulk. Our intermediary won’t buy back non-drinking receptacles and the garbage bill would be too high to not charge you. Sorry!
We recommend taking all of your other recycling needs to ecopark. They can recycle most things for free, small fee can apply for more hazardous materials.

Does it matter where I bought them?
Nope. Registered redemption centers are authorized to pay you back for your deposit no matter where you purchased it. We sort all of them by brand, size and material. We sell it back as such and it gets tracked that way.
However, if the bottle or can was purchased in a non-deposit state, we cannot pay for it as there was never a deposit on it to begin with.
