Consumers pay California Redemption Value (CRV) when they purchase beverages from a retailer and receive CRV refunds when they redeem the containers. This is a statewide program administered by CalRecycle. More information about the program is available on the CalRecycle website. Check If Eligible for CRV Check the label to see if a container is eligible for CRV (California Redemption Value): it will say CA Redemption Value, California Cash Refund, CA CRV, or CA Cash Refund. Aluminum cans are labeled on the top of the can, and plastic or glass containers are labeled on the side.

The attendant may reject a pile if it is excessively contaminated.
