one local flow.
hosts. collectors.
value returned.
The bottlr network is a closed loop: businesses post, collectors claim, redemption centers process, and value flows back into the community. Live, local, and transparent.
five actors. one clean loop.
Every pickup on bottlr follows the same path — from host posting to collector earnings, with verification at every step.
hosts post
Businesses, households, and event venues post pickup availability: location, bottle count, and time window. Visible instantly on the live map.
collectors claim
Collectors nearby see the posting, evaluate the route and count, and claim with one tap. The host gets a notification. The job is locked.
pickup + verify
The collector completes the pickup and submits photo verification through the app. Both sides get a timestamped completion record.
payout + impact
The collector redeems bottles at a redemption center. The host gets an impact summary. The network records the outcome.
government + compliance
Municipal partners, university sustainability offices, and corporate ESG teams use bottlr's verified pickup data to document SB 1383 compliance, Scope 3 targets, and zero-waste certifications.
designed for trust at scale.
The bottlr network works because every actor has clear incentives and every action is verified. There's no ambiguity about who picked up what, or when.
photo verification on every job
Collectors submit a photo at pickup. This creates an immutable record for the host and an accountability layer for the network.
real-time job locking
Once claimed, a job is locked to that collector. No double-claiming, no race conditions, no wasted trips.
transparent completion history
Both collectors and hosts see their history: completed pickups, quantities, timing, and outcomes. No black boxes.
