Information Associated with Persons Importing Empty Beverage Container Material
CalRecycle implemented the Imported Empty Beverage Container Reporting and Inspection Program in collaboration with the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA). One requirement of the program is that anyone bringing more than 25 pounds of aluminum, bimetal, or plastic empty beverage container material, or more than 250 pounds of glass empty beverage container material, into California in a motor vehicle, must complete an Imported Material Report (IMR) and present it to a CDFA border station agent upon seeking entry into the state.
CalRecycle provides information recently submitted by importers on their IMRs, including:
- Importer’s name
- Vehicle license plate number and
- Type of vehicle used to import empty beverage container materials.
This information is being provided to all certified or registered program participants as a preventative measure to help ensure compliance with applicable statutes and regulations and not as a determination that these individuals redeemed or attempted to redeem imported empty beverage container materials.
Only certified processors may accept imported material and only pay scrap value.
If you are not a processor, and any of the individuals on these lists, or any other individual, contacts you or attempts to sell or deliver imported empty beverage container materials to you, contact CalRecycle’s Beverage Container Recycling fraud tip line 1-866-CAN-LOAD [226-5623] or Investigations@CalRecycle.ca.gov, and provide any identifying information that may assist in an investigation.
