Bottle Drop: Support CSWC & Recycle!
Want to recycle and donate to CSWC at the same time? Simply collect your redeemable cans and bottles, and pop them into a blue Bottle Drop bag, and drop them off at the nearest bottle drop location. The funds automatically go to Columbia Slough Watershed Council’s account. You can also transfer funds from your own Bottle Drop.
In FY 2024, we received an extra $2000 from Bottle Drop thanks folks using blue bags! That’s extra funds we can use to make our programming even better.
