The CRV might have started as an idea to get people to recycle back before recycling was widespread but it like so many political solutions to problems is now outdated. Recycling is widespread and the CRV has become nothing but a burden.
maybe a burden for the state to pay what they PROMISED TO PAY, but as usual the state is trying to get out of their own creation, AGAIN. we PAY at the register, and get f*cked at the buyback. And who gets rich? The ones telling you 100 pounds max per day. THATS WHO. nice trucks btw. right up there with do nothing Caltrans.
