Return and Earn Basket Pilot Program
We’ve installed 50 ‘Return and Earn’ baskets on public bins across our parks, beaches, and town centres to keep recyclables out of landfill and reduce litter. Instead of tossing your 10-cent containers in the waste, simply place them in a basket so community members and local groups can easily collect them for a refund.
Where to find these bins
This pilot program, funded by Exchange for Change, helps protect our environment and prevents damage to public bins at no cost to ratepayers.
You can find our Return and Earn baskets attached to existing public bins in high-traffic areas at the following locations
