I hated going to the bottle depot and I disliked throwing bottles into the recycling bin. This is so easy! I have been using them for years and donating the proceeds to a local charity

Highly recommend

This went so smoothly and I cannot tell you how much I appreciate it. From booking to pick up to transfer of money…. Very, very impressed.

I wish I had this sooner!

I’ve used SkipTheDepot for several years now and I will never (by my choice anyway) go back. Life is too busy and returning cans was time I’d just rather spend elsewhere, you know? No offence to the fine folks at the depot, don’t get me wrong, but I’m happier now and I choose to believe they get it.
