What is a container recycling fee (CRF) and why is it charged?
Container recycling fees represent the net cost of recycling the containers and are required to fund that portion of system operations costs (collection, transportation and marketing) that is not covered by material revenues (i.e., the ‘salvage value’ of the containers) and unredeemed deposits. The CRFs are non-refundable.
