Rebate Checklist 

To make sure you have everything ready to submit your rebate application, please read through the checklist below before submitting.

Did you complete the online course or attend a workshop AND receive a voucher?

• Previous years OR expired vouchers will NOT be accepted.

Is the item you purchased an eligible rebate item that you are eligible for?

• The item must be listed as an eligible rebate item for you on your voucher. 
• Rain barrels must be enclosed with lid and have a properly installed & level diverter system.
• Compost bins must be enclosed or have adequate rodent protection in place. Click for rodent proofing ideas.
• Plants must be planted in the ground.
• Annuals, vegetables, herbs, aquatics, or seeds will not be reimbursed.
• We will NOT reimburse anything listed on our Invasive, Do-Not-Plant List. Click for our Invasive Species, Do-Not-Plant list, including cultivars of invasive plants such as Butterfly Bush 'Miss Molly.'

Do you have a copy of your receipt from a legitimate retailer that clearly states the vendor, item name, and item cost?

• Receipts must include: retailer name and location, date, name of item purchased, and price of the item(s).
  
• Plant receipts must indicate species name! If your receipt only lists "perennial", you must include the species names in the comments and attach a photo of plant tags.

• Photos must clearly show proof of LEVEL/straight-across diverter system for rain barrels, plant tags must be included with plant reimbursements, and rodent protection for on-the-ground compost bins (if eligible).

Please fill out the rebate application form and submit it. You will not be able to view the photos after you attach them. Don't forget to hit submit when you're done. 

After you submit, here are the next steps: 

• Due to the volume of rebates, we will process your rebate application within approximately 2-4 weeks. Please be patient with us as we are a small office working to keep up with this crazy busy program! 
• Once your rebate has been approved, you will receive an email notification to let you know it has been approved. If there are any issues, we will reach out to you.
• Upon approval, your reimbursement check will be mailed to your rebate address. ETA is approximately 60 days after submitting the rebate application form, but this can vary greatly due to mail delivery delays. Please allow 90 days before contacting us about your check status. We cannot issue a new check unitl after the original one has expired 90 days after issuance.
