Why have your returnables picked up?
Business pick-ups allow Diverters to gain income from refunds, reduce the stigma associated with diverting, and to build community relationships.
Benefits to Diverters
Having bottles and cans picked up reduces the amount of material going off island to far away recycling plants and keeps the impact local!
Benefits to Businesses
Recycled materials don't often make it into a new product's life cycle. The deposit system ensures we are transforming waste into a resource.
Benefits to Environment
