8/6/2023 - Bottle and Can Redemption

Every first Sunday of the month, Sustainable Southbury and EyeRecyle will host a free redemption day in Southbury. All redeemable bottles and cans will be accepted. Get cash back! EyeRecycle will pay you the full $0.05 per item or you can donate them.

Not sure if it is redeemable? Look near the barcode or recycle symbol to find the label that says CT 0.05 Cent REFUND.

We have an express lane for people that have already bagged their redeemable bottles and cans in an EyeRecycle bag. You simply drop off your bag and get paid.

EyeRecycle bags can be purchased at the event for $.50 cents/bag or at the EyeRecycle website. Sustainable Southbury also sells the bags at the Southbury Transfer Station on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Look for the Sustainable Southbury canopy near the recycling area.

If you don’t have an EyeRecycle bag, our volunteers will transfer your bottles into an EyeRecycle bag that has a fill line for counting. Please make separate bags for the 1-liter bottles and the 2-liter bottles to speed up the transfer and ensure you receive the correct amount for your bottles. Place redeemable glass bottles (no wine or liquor bottles) in your own small cardboard box or a 6, 12, 18, or 24-pack cardboard carrier - we cannot accept loose glass bottles. A full EyeRecycle bag of 750ml bottles earns $10 cash back.

Thank you for helping our environment and keeping our community clean! Sustainable Southbury, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
