Through our BotttleDrop Redemption Centers and partnerships with retailers, we collect nearly all the containers redeemed in Oregon, return deposits to consumers, and provide a high quality source of recycled raw materials for manufacturers.

We are a not-for-profit cooperative business made up of over 150 Oregon beverage distribution companies.
