Beverage Container Recycling Program
The County of San Bernardino Solid Waste Management Division (SWMD) developed the Beverage Container Recycling Program for the unincorporated areas of San Bernardino County to increase California Refund Value (CRV) beverage container recycling and litter cleanup activities. The Beverage Container Recycling Program is one of several County initiatives to reduce waste and helps comply with mandated state waste reduction goals.
What is California Refund Value: Consumers pay CRV when they purchase beverages from a retailer, which is refunded when they redeem the containers at a recycling center.
Focusing on beverage container recycling, the program presents an opportunity to educate our citizens about the importance and benefits of recycling. Schools and non-profit community organizations can benefit from this program by generating extra funds for their programs and activities.
Program funding received from the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery, which administers the California Beverage Container Recycling and Litter Reduction Act

Did you know...Californians bought 21.9 billion carbonated and non-carbonated drinks in aluminum, glass, plastic and bi-metal containers last year. More than 16.1 billion of those containers were recycled, saving natural resources, conserving energy and extending the life of our landfills.
