If someone came to my house and wanted my bottles they can have them!
Hell, last week the Boy Scouts were doing a 'bottle drive' but you had to bring the bottles to them at a central location.
Thats not a 'Bottle Drive' you just set up an ad hoc bottle depot. Whatever happened to coming to my house and picking them up?
If my wife would let me I'd probably just throw them all in my Blue Bin and let the City have the deposit. Could you imagine if we all did that? We probably wouldnt need to keep jacking up Property Taxes to make ends meet.
I mean, I go to the bottle depot twice a year and probably net like $200. Not worth it for me.
I've run the math and it just isnt lucrative enough for me.

More or less the same way. I begrudgingly will try to go every four months so it doesn't pile up. I absolutely love it when the scouts or sports teams come to the door looking for bottles. Usually give them a large garbage bag full. Helps delay that trip to the depot and kids eyes light up when handed a bag of bottles half their size.
