It is unlawful to hold onto a registered milk receptacle.

The Law Explained

During the era of local dairy delivery, glass milk bottles were expensive assets for farms. The state made it a specific crime to hoard, destroy, or use a dairy's branded milk bottles for anything other than their original purpose. If you're using an antique creamery bottle as a trendy flower vase without permission, you might be running afoul of this old agricultural protection law.
