About This Location

The Olyns Cube at 150 E El Camino Real in Sunnyvale is an automated CRV reverse vending machine (an unstaffed self-service kiosk), not a traditional recycling yard. You use the Olyns mobile app for a touchless deposit; the Cube counts your containers automatically and sends your California Redemption Value refund as electronic cash to PayPal. It accepts CA CRV-eligible beverage containers made of plastic, aluminum and glass, plus wine and spirits containers in multi-layer pouch, bag-in-box and paperboard carton formats, as long as they carry CalRecycle-approved CRV labels. The Cube is open 10 AM to 8 PM daily.
