RECYCLING IN TRAER
There is no such thing as "away." When we throw anything away it must go somewhere.
Traer offers can and bottle redemption as well as a full-service recycling center.
REDEMPTION CENTER
Can Country is a full-service redemption center. We take all containers with IA deposit except Hy-Vee and the Aldi brand Summit. There is a one cent per container handling fee paid by the distributor.
We kicked off our location with a can drive for the NT High School in December 2018. They brought in over 30K cans in one day! We encourage more local can drives, so contact us for information.

RECYCLING CENTER
Traer offers a convenient space behind Main Street to recycle all your containers, mixed paper, glass, and cardboard materials. Note that these are the only items to be disposed of at this location–the site is monitored by security cameras to prevent dumping of trash.
