Frequently Asked Questions
How much do I get per bottle at South Portland Redemption Center?
Standard beverage containers (beer cans, soda bottles, water bottles) earn 5¢ each. Wine and liquor bottles over 50 ml earn 15¢ each, reflecting Maine's higher deposit rate for those categories.
Do I need to sort my bottles before bringing them to the redemption center?
It is helpful to keep aluminum, plastic, and glass separate to speed up the process, but there is no hard requirement. Staff at the counter count and sort containers on your behalf.
Can I bring bottles purchased in New Hampshire or Massachusetts to South Portland Redemption Center?
No. Only containers that were purchased in Maine and carry a Maine deposit can be redeemed here. Out-of-state containers do not have a Maine deposit and cannot be accepted.
