Bottles and Cans

When/Where:

Redeemable bottles and cans are collected year ‘round on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of every  month from 9am to 11am at the ELVB trailer located in the parking lot behind the ELHS baseball field.  

How It Works:

Community members drop off their bottles and cans for sorting by volunteer students and their families. Sorted bags are then picked up by an outside vendor and taken to a recycling center. The vendor pays ELVB a flat amount per sorted bag. 

Suggested Commitment: 

All ELVB families should sign up to volunteer for at least two Saturdays during the next 12 months. An experienced family will always be assisting to show new families how this is done. You will  witness that this process is a very well-oiled machine! 

Other Ways to Help:

Save your own bottles and cans. Encourage your  friends and neighbors to do the same. Share FaceBook notifications of our collection days.  They are posted each Wednesday prior to the collection day. 

Refer any bottles and cans questions from the community that you cannot answer to  

elvbpride@gmail.com. We will reply promptly.
