About us
Oregon Beverage Recycling Cooperative is the industry steward of Oregon's bottle deposit and redemption system. Through our BotttleDrop Redemption Centers and partnerships with retailers, we collect nearly all the containers redeemed in Oregon, return deposits to consumers, and provide a high quality source of recycled raw materials for manufacturers. We are a not-for-profit cooperative business made up of over 150 Oregon beverage distribution companies. Our workforce of more than 500 employees provides a fast, easy, and accountable system for recycling beverage containers. And, just as Tom McCall envisioned it more than 45 years ago, we deliver a cleaner, greener, Oregon at zero cost to taxpayers. We are a growing company with a track record of innovation. In just the last year, we've added 14 more locations for people to return their empties, while also expanding capacity at our processing plants so that we can accommodate higher recycling rates and more container types with redemption value. We will continue to expand in the future with even more locations, new partnerships to help raise money for non-profit community groups, and new programs that will build on our leadership in container recycling.

Thousands of Oregonians have turned their bottle and can returns into nearly $1.4M in savings for higher ed! This is all made possible through our great 4 year (and counting!) partnership with Oregon State Treasury's Oregon College Savings Plan. That's delivering results for Oregon. https://lnkd.in/ggcTHJT5

Five years later, this is still one of our favorite projects! It was a pleasure working with Blue Chalk Media, their former creative director, Rob Finch, and Rob's two brilliant kids, Seamus and Alcina, who are the film's stars! Full video: https://lnkd.in/d-4ybbn -----From Blue Chalk Media----- “Seamus Gets a Fish” is the tenth and final film in Blue Chalk Media's “10 Stories for 10 Years” countdown, the celebration of a decade of Blue Chalk. “How Seamus Gets a Fish,” was one of the most personal projects we’ve ever created. Created for Oregon Beverage Recycling Company, the film chronicles Seamus trying to earn money recycling bottles at Oregon BottleDrop to buy his very own fish and be like his big sister. We watch as Seamus learns more about the environmental impact of waste and to appreciate the power of recycling. For our team, “How Seamus Gets a Fish” is a wonderful demonstration of how, sometimes, the most interesting stories happen right in front of us. It also shows that creative and heartfelt storytelling can make a big impact on both big and small productions. https://lnkd.in/g34Wbfjd

“The combination of convenience and incentive in Oregon means nearly all beverage containers are collected with other beverage containers, helping protect food-grade materials from contamination, and returning them to their highest and best use, which is often a new bottle or can.” ~Jules Bailey, OBRC President & CEO https://lnkd.in/g3stxFba The Hill
U.S. consumers need incentive, convenience, transparency to effectively recycle, environmental experts tell senators

Oregon Beverage Recycling Cooperative reposted this
Today, the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment & Public Works met on “Examining Solutions to Address Beverage Container Waste”. Susan V. Collins, of the Container Recycling Institute, Jules Bailey, of the Oregon Beverage Recycling Cooperative, and Stephen Alexander, of the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR), provided expert testimony on why the United States is in need of a national container deposit return system. A national recycling refund would reduce litter, create jobs, increase the availability of recycled materials, and reduce impacts on the environment!🥤♻ Watch the hearing: https://bit.ly/3tdoAVz #RecyclingRefund #NationalBottleBill #EquitableEconomy #CircularEconomy

At OBRC, our vision of a world where no resource is wasted means helping inspire positive change beyond our borders. Jules Bailey, our President and CEO, has been invited to testify before the US Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works Thursday, Sept. 28, at 10:00 am EDT (7:00 am PDT). The purpose of the Congressional Hearing is to examine solutions to address beverage container waste, and Oregon’s nation-leading 85.5% redemption rate and only statewide refillable bottle caught the Committee’s attention. We are beyond excited to have the Oregon Model featured at the national level! You can stream the hearing from either the Committee’s website or YouTube: - https://lnkd.in/gFzzsB67 - youtube.com/c/epwcmte
