Could probably pull a ton of bottles out of the large recycling bins that are usually set up around towns. Nice idea!

[@yeroca]

Yup, but in most places taking things from recycling bins is illegal. However in this case, they'd probably be fine with it because plastic recycling doesn't make them money.. it's only an expense.

[@meloney]

in Germany you get back 25 cent for each plastic bottle you give back. so while it is useful in America, other countries do things against it dozens of years. but great to see that they get useful that way.

[@dogwalker666]

[@OccultDemonCassette]

@@dogwalker666 yeah, it does sound like it might be illegal in some places. I've never seen anyone here get mad about taking recycling stuff In my area though. I can walk around my cities recycling drop off center and take pretty much anything, plastic, old electronics, etc. The workers will even show you where some types of items might be. I've picked a few decent small 7" LED monitor panels from the e-waste center for a project I had been working on, and all I had to do was solder on some new capacitors to get them back in working order. To be fair I live in blood-red Tennessee and I'm 99% sure a large majority of our items sent for recycling are just tossed in a burn pit.

[@crisalykaios8216]

The bottles WOULD be from the trash. Just they wouldn't have to go digging for them. The person who uses the bottles could set up set locations for "clean bottles" (not ones guys use to pee in, or people use for various other things, or half empty and so on). Bottles like what I use every day for my cats to keep them from getting crystals in their urine and causing them harm, nothing but water has been in them. So they wouldn't have to clean them. Just collect from designated area/s and do their prep on them and make it into their stuff. They wouldn't have to do all the extra foot work. And other humans don't have to throw their bottles in the trash, can go straight to people like this
