 Got PLASTIC Bottles?

It’s Plastic Bottle Thursdays at GW!

 Remember to bring in your plastic bottles on Thursday. They should be in a bag. Drop them off at the front. No cans or bottles.

This is how it’s going to work:

 

  1. Please save your plastic bottles from home that are marked CRV* or California Redemption Value.
  2. Bring all the bottles collected every Thursday morning at drop off time.
  3. GW staff will collect them from you and will take them to the big CR&R recycling container on the GW school lot.
  4. When the big recycling container gets full, the GW PTA will receive a check.
  5. The amount raised will be announced during flag salute.

If you are interested in participating, please contact Lynn Kupfer at kupowein@cox.net or 495-7808.

What Is CRV?

California Refund Value (CRV) is the amount paid by consumers at the checkout stand and paid back to consumers when they recycle eligible plastic, aluminum, glass and bi-metal beverage containers at one of California’s more than 2,100 certified recycling centers.

To identify a CRV recyclable beverage container look for the phrase “CA CASH REFUND,” “CA CRV” or similar wording on the top of the container or the label of the bottle.  Plastic containers are marked on the label.

NOTE: CRV is established by law and is subject to change with new legislation.
