You might find it somewhere on the Internet, but I think it would be
difficult for anyone here to give you a definitive answer. There are 50
states in the US. Some states have no bottle deposits and some do. In
addition, it depends, by state, as to which kinds of beverages and bottles
have deposits. There is currently legislation pending in various states
that would increase the scope of what type of bottles should have deposits.
There are differences between bottles containing carbonated and non-
carbonated beverages, as well as bottle material; e.g., glass or plastic.
