Bottle & Can Recycling

Bring your empty bottles and cans and get paid fair market value for every deposit. We sort, weigh, and pay on the spot — no waiting, no hassle.

Deposit Redemptions

Every bottle and can has a deposit attached — we make sure you collect it. Quick count, immediate payout, and a friendly face while you wait.

Bulk Collection

Hosting an event or cleaning out the garage? We handle large volumes with the same fair pricing. Just give us a call and we'll work out a plan.

We're your neighbors. That means we treat every customer like someone we know — with respect, honesty, and the kind of service that keeps you coming back.

Our Story

Built on a Handshake and Hard Work

Bill's Bottles and Cans started as a simple idea: give people in Cherokee County a place where their recyclables are worth something real, and where a neighbor will actually show up when you need help around the house.

We're not a franchise. We're not a faceless operation. We're right here on South Second Street, and we treat every customer the way we'd want to be treated — with fairness, honesty, and a little extra care. Whether you're dropping off a few cans or need a repair fixed, you'll always get the same respect.
