The Return-It depot in 亚洲天堂 Lake has upped its aluminum beer can return from eight cents to ten, thanks to a new contract with Brewers Distributed LM.
Depot owner Chris Beach told Lakes District 亚洲天堂 that after a six month trial run was ended in January, the depot is now once again permitted to provide a full ten cent deposit for all aluminum beer cans. 鈥淚 think it will be really good for the community,鈥� Beach said. 鈥淔or one, the consumer will get more money back for their returned beer cans, and that in turn could help promote more recycling as well. We feel very fortunate and pleased that we were able to get this contract.鈥�
According to Beach, the yearly volume of recycled cans at the depot has increased by thirty three percent over the past six years.
Beach said that he also believes the change in return price will also cut down on the amount of travelling out of town, as people won鈥檛 have to travel elsewhere for the ten cent return. 鈥淣ow people can receive their full 10 cent deposit right here in 亚洲天堂 lake, that means more money being kept in town and less wear and tear on roads. It鈥檚 a total win-win for everyone.鈥�
The Return-it Depot is located on 117 BC-35, right behind the Pub N鈥� Tandoori Grill in 亚洲天堂 Lake.
