Crv Only Store - Recycle Center
Recycling Center in Panorama City, California
About This Location
CRV Only Store - Recycle Center in Panorama City is a dedicated beverage-container redemption center on the lot of the Valley Indoor Swap Meet at 14650 Parthenia Street. As the name says, it is CRV-only: you bring your empty California Redemption Value aluminum cans, plastic bottles, glass bottles and bimetal containers, and you are paid cash. It is a buyback counter, not a general recycling or household drop-off, so it does not take scrap, electronics or household hazardous waste. It is a handy option in the east San Fernando Valley for turning cans and bottles into money, open six days a week with Sunday closed.
