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?
Redemption centers actually work very similarly to the grocery store. The 2009 New York Bottle Bill, adds redemption centers as accepted business to receive recycling do to the huge traffic demand on sellers. We get a handling fee for prepping the recycling to hit the processing plant as soon as it gets there on top of being reimbursed for the deposit we paid you.

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?
We can only accept what our buyer will buy or take from us. As of today they do not take general plastics, metals or cardboard. Those materials go to a different plant.
The cost of accepting other recycling is too high to offer the service for free. We do however recycle the bags and boxes you bring your recycling in!
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?
No. This is the reason for the sorting and why we cannot take wrapper-less bottles. Sorting the recycling by brand, size and material ensures that the first deposit gets allocated to the proper entity down the line.
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.
