Find an Online Bottle Drive Near You

 


If you are looking for a great way to contribute to your community, look no further than the pile of recyclable drink containers you have sitting in your home. The refund from your cans, bottles and cartons can be donated to a local non-profit through a bottle depot near you. Simply check with the bottle depots in your area to find out which ones offer bottle drives, especially online bottle drives right now.

Many bottle depots offer support for bottle drives and can let you know if there are any in progress in your area. They also will frequently have a designated non-profit that they work with continuously that you can donate to right onsite.

Another key program that bottle depots will offer is an online bottle drive. This allows the non-profit organisations to register with the bottle depot to participate. Once they are registered, patrons at the bottle depot can choose to donate their refund to the charity any time they return recyclable drink containers. This allows the organisation to receive funds on an ongoing basis, rather than using up so many resources doing one big push at a time. While both can be effective at raising money, it’s actually great to do both (when times permit).

If a non-profit organisation does a big push for bottle donations by having drop off locations, pick-ups and marketing to their neighbourhoods, they will attract lots of attention for their group. Also, when printing and distributing flyers for a single day or weekend bottle drive, it’s critical to also mention the bottle depots in the area that the organisation is registered with so people know they can donate at a future date and give their ongoing support to a group. This combination gives a nonprofit organisation the best visibility and chance of getting regular support. 

For those who want to support the online bottle drive of the organisations they choose to donate to, there are a few ways that a bottle depot can collect your bottles. The first, of course, is the traditional way - bring them into the depot and have them counted, then let the attendant know which charity you would like to designate the refund to. 

The second option is curbside drop-off. Simply bring your bottles in your vehicle and pull up to the depot. A team will unload the bottles, count them and bring your refund to you in your vehicle.

The third option is to schedule a pick-up. Sun ridge Bottle Depot offers pick-up anywhere in the city of Calgary with no cost to the customer. We give you the full refund amount without deducting anything or charging any fees at all. Once a date and time is set, you just leave your bottles outside where the pick-up team can collect them and they will be gone! Your bottles are returned to the bottle depot, counted and your refund is donated to the bottle drive of the organisation you selected when booking the pick-up.

Find a bottle depot near you that supports bottle drives and offers the online bottle drive option so you can choose to support your community!
