http://consumerwatchdog.org/recycling — Nancy's backyard is full of recyclables because there is no place nearby to provide redemption at the full deposit value that was paid.
Consumer Watchdog's Jamie Court tells how Californians like Nancy can't get any grocery stores to accept and redeem her bottles and cans and how SB 38 is a solution to fix the state's broken recycling system.
Data compiled by Consumer Watchdog shows Oregon has the third best redemption rate out of ten states at 86 percent. California is third to last at 58.9 percent, down a full 10 percent since the beginning of 2020.
