CRV Buyback - Recylcing
Has anyone used the recycling redemption program at the Sunnyvale SMaRT Station?
Let's say I have more than 100 cans that I want to redeem for the California CRV refund. From what I understand, the payout works like this:
-The first 50 containers of each material type are paid at the per-container rate.
-Any additional containers are paid by weight.
If that's correct, would I get a better return by redeeming only 50 cans at a time and then coming back another day to redeem the next 50?
Also, I know there are bottle and can redemption machines at some grocery stores (for example, Safeway). How do those compare with the SMaRT Station in terms of payout? Is one generally better than the other?
Thanks!
