Collect eligible containers

Return your containers

Donate your refund

1. Collect eligible containers

Most aluminium, glass, plastic, steel and liquid paperboard beverage containers between 150ml and 3L are eligible for a 10-cent refund.

2. Return your containers

There are four different types of refund points available in Queensland. To find a refund point visit the Containers for Change website.

Depots

Walk in or drive through to get your containers counted and refunded on the spot. Best for large loads.

Bag drops

Simply ‘bag it, tag it, drop it’. Bag drops are available at various locations as a convenient and contact free way to cash in.

Reverse vending machines (RVMs)

Insert containers into an RVM so the machine can count your containers by scanning their barcodes. Best for smaller returns.

Pop-ups

These are run by local depot operators who organise a set time and location that you can visit to return your containers.
