You Asked, We Answered!
Thank you for sending in your BottleDrop questions! We’ll continue featuring the answers to your most frequently asked questions in our newsletters throughout the year.
Question: Which containers are included in Oregon’s Bottle Bill?
Answer: 88% of single-use beverages sold in Oregon are included in Oregon’s Bottle Bill, PLUS beverages sold in BottleDrop Refillable bottles. Generally, you can look for the OR-10 marking on a container’s lid or label to verify if it carries a deposit.
Pro Tip: Review the OLCC’s list of containers that are included and are not included. We also have handy reference guides: What’s In and What’s Out.
