Bottle & Can Redemption Centers in Modesto: FAQ

How much do I get back for cans and bottles in Modesto, CA?

It depends on your state's bottle bill: most pay 5 or 10 cents per eligible container. Only containers sold in the state with the deposit marking qualify.

Do I need to sort my containers?

Most redemption centers ask you to separate by material (aluminum, plastic, glass) and sometimes by brand or distributor. Rinsed, uncrushed containers are processed fastest.

Is there a limit on how many containers I can return?

Some centers and retailers cap daily returns per person. Call ahead if you have a large load.
