Hermon Family Redemption
Recycling Center in Hermon, Maine
About This Location
Hermon Family Redemption is a neighborhood bottle-and-can redemption center on Fuller Road in Hermon, operating out of a converted barn that the town's Planning Board approved via a 2022 contract zone change. Under Maine's long-running Bottle Bill, it returns your nickel-per-container deposit on cans and most bottles - and 15 cents on wine and spirits containers - with no fee to you. It also takes fundraiser bag drops for local groups: label the bags with your organization's name and call or text ahead. Hours are seasonal and limited, so it's worth confirming by phone before a trip.
