What about states on cans It makes no sense to me like I have a coke and Pepsi can that say all states on the can but brisk says only Californiabrbr Why, it's the same thing why does it matter it's just a different label

I wish I lived in Canada instead of Ohio here in the US , I just turned in roughly 12,300 beer and pop cans and only made $186 because they are 47 cents a poundbut I still gather them all the time anyways because money is money

Here in Maine we have a pretty decent 05 per bottle/can, 15 large glass bottles redemption Either take them to a redemption center and receive cash, or some grocery stores let you return bottles and cans and use it towards your grocery bill We are able to return everything be sides Milk, dairy-derived products, Maine-produced apple cider and blueberry juice, Seafood, meat or vegetable broths or soups, Instant drink powdersbrProducts designed to be consumed in a frozen state, Liquid syrups, concentrates or extracts

Down here in Phoenix I'm lucky to have a scrapyard nearby that recycles aluminum cans and plastic bottles Thanks to this place, they've saved so much plastic from ending up in the landfill They have mountains and mountains of plastic bottles piled up in their yard The only downer is that they're only about 20 cents a pound We don't have a bottle deposit, though

I would like it if you made videos of dumpster diving at record stores or dumpster diving at thrift stores to find vinyl records

Comment from : Dragos Gabriel

Yeah Wish we had that here in sc I used to carry tons of bottles and cans when I knew I had runs up north Paid for my groceries while I was up there But I remember collecting coke bottles in the 70s and buying my first bicycle from them My parents would take me to the bottling plant to sell them
Comment from : Travis Britt

Hopefully you will see this But when recycling plastic water bottles (the small ones) how many cents would i receive if i'm from Georgia I'm guessing it would be 10 cents
Comment from : Isaiahtofye Kingdom

Why does Realemon bottle say return for refund, yet bottle depot won't accept it? (I'm in Alberta, Canada)

Amazing runthrough of bottle recycling worldwide! Thanks for mentioning Norway specifically too! We really do a lot of bottle recycling here, and ALL shops that sell bottles/cans have to accept them in return for cash or as store credit Small bottles are now NOK 2,- (0,28 CAD cents) and large ones at NOK 3,- (0,42 CAD cents), so it REALLY makes sense to recycle Families usually save up in shopping bags here and bring them with them every time they go shopping, and there's machines in every shop that will accept your bottles and give you a receipt Take the recept to the cashier and get the money in cash, or simply deduct it from your grocery shopping Still, Norwegians have a lot of money, so a lot of people will still leave their bottles and not care about bringing them to the shop, so we have some bottle pickers here too, but not like in other countries I've been to for sure Anyhow, this is my first comment on any of your videos! Shout out from Norway! Keep on scrapping! :D
Comment from : ChineseDetective

In New York where I live, they don't scan bar codes so it WOULD be possible for people to import containers from other states
Comment from : Jeff Brown

I wish in my area there where a deposit on cans and bottles I currently get 30 to 45 cents per lb depending on where I go I do know Minnesota is kicking around the idea of deposits
Comment from : silverado708

Theres no deposit refund for bottles and cans in washington state if you try to take them to oregon for a refund you will get a $250 fine for cashing them in illegally
Comment from : Jesus My Lord & Savior King

In Nova Scotia it's: all ready-to-drink beverages (excluding milk) are 005$ while liquor bottles over 500mL and domestic beer bottles are 010$brbrAlso it's NEWF-in-LAND not new-FOUND-lind
Comment from : Exile N Subjugate

The Swedish system works well until there are foreign cans, they are just to drive to the scrap yard or as many do throws in nature, and unfortunately I must say, aluminum cans you need some for it to be worthwhile to go to the scrap yard
Comment from : Adam H

Check out I took this 28 oZ side Powerade to my recycle place And they rejected They say they are no recycle that type of bottles Well if I pay 5 cents for a babble Should I get back that Money?
Comment from : Byron Villatoro

Where bottle Depot is at where you're at but not States it don't exist America don't recycle plastic and glass
Comment from : Matt McCarthy

Some reason knows bye bottles and aluminum cans you return it the refund back it don't accept it here in America !!!
Comment from : Matt McCarthy

Great video 2021
Comment from : Isaia Flores

Cheers from Lithuania! The deposit is 01€ per can/plastic/glass bottle here No milk cartons, wine, or champagne, though, I still wonder why, as it uses so much glass By the way it's crazy to see you dumpster dive so efficiently, it seems people don't really like to recycle :) You wouldn't find as many bottles it the trash in LT as the return rate is 92

Some extra info, for you Professor Thub! Belgium and Luxemburg also have a deposite systembrbrThe Netherlands will have a deposit on small plastic bottles by July 2021 If trash in the streets isn't reduced by 2022, there will be a deposit on cans as wellbrNot all glass beer bottles have a depositbrThe crates also have a depositbrbrSome beer bottles bought in Germany for 8 cents deposit can be returned in the Netherlands for 10 cents deposit (I like to try every beer once, so I shop a lot on holidays and bring beers home)

Comment from : raymond frazier

Pretty sure quebec's 20c for larger containers only applies to beer containers When I turn in a ton of 2L pop bottles I get almost nothing not really worth bothering for anything except large beer cans here
Comment from : Arthixful

Great information I wish Ontario recycled more
Comment from : Marilyn Ward

Comment from : jackpot digger

Comment from : jackpot digger

Is scrapping your full time job? If so that’s awesome, there is something new everyday!
Comment from : Chandler D

Hi thub, in the Netherlands you hardly get any money for cans The aluminum cans can be handed in to a limited number of scrap iron traders! You don't get anything for drink bottles except beer bottles only the soft drink bottles live up to 025 cents and the beer bottles 010 cents Keep it up! super cool channel Greetings Wilco

You are a professsional Thank you for your content!

Similarly a snow slowing me collecting bottles and cans, bad for oldies
Comment from : Arsenio Jr Mauricio

Hi, One thing you missed is the effect on the physical environment I am from South Australia where we have had deposits for decades and what I see when travelling interstate is the amount of recyclables littering the environment that due to our deposit program does not exist
Comment from : zolledz

Great video! PS - You might've mispronounced Newfoundland?
Comment from : S M

Wonder why more US states aren’t participating in the bottle deposit return system
Comment from : Cross Smith

Interesting stuff Canada definitely is on to it Here in MA at 5 cents a bottle it is just not worth it except for your own consumption bottles Which makes me wonder what is the critical deposit refund to make it worthwhile picking? Maybe 15c on average? Thanks Thub
Comment from : Geoff T

in Ontario you can take aluminum cans to the scrap yard the one I've been to was 46 cents per pound
Comment from : Gords Garden

i knewand i still watched lol !! in New York i remember when they started the 5cent depositits only on carbonated and water bottlesand there are people that have routes on recycling day to collect before the trucks comemy dad used to save his for a lady every weekleaving it better than he found it !!
Comment from : Beanz 19

M8 I reside in Oregon USA where deposit is 10 cents per container with exceptions of milk jugs and other items Your presentation was amazing I would like to say cheers to you M8 Keep up the good work God bless y'all
Comment from : gus superman

What's up thub? I live in the Netherlands and we indeed have the reverse vending machine for plastic bottles, but that's basically it Trash picking or street scrapping is not allowed, and unfortunately we've got nothing for cans, just for beer bottles (regular pilsener only) and soda bottlesbrThe vending machines we have are only taking in proper bottles, so nothing crushed like I see you're doing in your videos Is there no regulation for "full size" cans or can you crush everything regardless to save space?
Comment from : Arnold de Vries

Good video!! I hope PA starts the bottle trend!!
Comment from : Dumpster Marcus

In Norway you can get 025-035$ per bottle
Comment from : andreas nguyen

I live in Newbury, England, our local Sainsbury’s has a bottle and can machine on trial - they pay 5 pence per item (which they must sell in store, if not they reject it) and they pay in vouchers which you can use in store!
Comment from : Steve Hitchman

So sad to watch this down here in the lower 48 Attitudes on trash, recycling and cradle to grave responsibility for manufacturers might be summed up as: you bought it, it's yours, you deal with it Love your work, vids and 'Leave it Better than you found it - Keep doing the thing!'
Comment from : Alan Pranke

Awesome video 👍👍brSome larger scrap yards in Ontario tack pop-cans and give you money as a aluminum
Comment from : Michael M

You are wrong for Québec IT 005¢ for soda bottles and cans 010¢ for regular beers bottles and 020¢ for talls beers cans and talls beers bottles We have micro(Brasserie bottles to !) So some Times it can be 030¢ , 050¢ to 2$ back 😁🤙

Michigan here 10 cent's
Comment from : Tracey Malott

In Germany my Parents get bottles they pay 25 Cents for "Pfand" i can Bring them Back and get my Pocket money
Comment from : Ma x

This is not in the state I live now but when I was in college in another state it was I lived in a richer neighborhood with my aunt and uncle and no one wanted to run the containers though the machine I’d stand in the booth cleaning it of all the bags people tossed in there, as well as collecting from neighbors and recycling bins, and made a small fortune
Comment from : 82gamerprincess

Best video on the recycling deposit scheme! brHere in Texas, "returnables" haven't been a thing since the 1970s or 80s It's quite sad really So much plastic ends up on the roadside, trash, and the water ways Another thing you might want to add in your next video is that these commodities (plastic, glass, aluminum) are worth substaintially more when they are source-separated by the bottle depots brThe end-users for these materials get a much cleaner product and it makes everyone well aware of the waste they make I see it as a win!

Comment from : Chris Swallow

Uh oh Now you have to explain the very bizarre concept of "lobbying" to the rest of the world :) When I was a kid, it was 2 cents for smalls and 5 cents for the really huge ones, and I still get a bit of a rush when I see one of the old deposit-type bottles turn up here and there 2 cents got us 4 pieces of candy! Of course, getting hold of unwanted bottles was rare
