CalRecycle awarded nearly $70 million in grants for 37 projects involving new recycling methods, such as reverse vending machines, mobile recycling centers and bag-drop sites.
'Innovative ways to recycle will help more Californians cash in their beverage containers and provide recycled materials for in-state remanufacturers,' said CalRecycle Director Zoe Heller.
Over the last decade, the state lost half of its bottle recycling centers, leaving people fewer opportunities to get their CRV charges back.
The grant money will open more than 250 new recycling sites, establishing mobile recycling, bag drop, and reverse vending machines across the state.
