OREGON’S BOTTLE BILL Redeemable Beverages

Most beverages have an Oregon refund value. There are too many beverages on the market to list them all individually. Below is a list of beverages that are commonly asked about that have an Oregon refund value.

Included, but only if they are in sealed glass, metal, or plastic bottles or cans in the following sizes: Beverages in sizes 3 liters or less

∙ Soda (carbonated/sparkling beverages)

∙ Beer and other malt beverages

∙ Water

∙ Kombucha*

∙ Hard Seltzer*

Beverages in sizes from 4 ounces up to and including 1.5 liters:

• Coffee/tea (even if they contain milk)

• Energy and sports drinks

• Fruit and vegetable juice (does not have to be and 100%)

• Aloe vera juice

• Non‐alcohol wine and spirits

• Hard cider if 8.5% ABV or less

• Coconut water

• Oral electrolyte replacements (such as Pedialyte)*

• Beverages containing dairy milk or plant‐based milk if milk is not listed as the first ingredient • Ready‐to‐drink cocktail mixers, like margarita mix or bloody Mary mix

Rule of Thumb:

Generally, if you can pour it and drink it, it’s covered unless:

✔ It’s one of the specifically excluded beverages (distilled spirits, wine, infant formula, liquid meal replacements, and beverages that list dairy milk or plant‐based milk as the first ingredient).

✔ It’sin a carton, foil pouch, drink box, or metal container that requires a tool to be opened. ✔ It’s outside the size ranges listed above.

The OLCC is dedicated to the success of the Bottle Bill by working with distributors, retailers, redemption centers, and consumers to make sure they are complying with state laws. It is the OLCC’s responsibility to implement the legislature’s changes and to provide excellent customer service to the public and our stakeholders throughout implementation. Rev. 01/23
