A Modesto-based dairy company has had enough of milk crate theft, which costs the U.S. industry an estimated $80 million a year.
Crystal Creamery, formerly known as Foster Farms Dairy, is working with law enforcement, grocers and other partners to combat the problem.
They are focusing mainly on large-scale thieves who try to sell the ground-up plastic to recyclers, although it’s also illegal to take a single crate for use as a toolbox or storage container.
