LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Load up the trunks!
Michigan residents burdened for weeks with bottles and cans can return them again to stores, starting June 15.
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer had suspended the returns because of the coronavirus. As a result, bottles and cans with 10-cent deposits have been piling up in basements, garages and under the kitchen sink.
There are estimates that the returnables are worth millions of dollars. Some people have simply dropped cans and bottles in recycling bins or donated them to nonprofit groups instead of saving them.
Returns are limited to $25 per day. Retailers with collection machines can set up special hours.
