How does the service work?
In simple terms, you’ll sign up to LEASE one of our specially branded red bottle and can wheelie bins ($30 one-off lease cost) and then get the opportunity to have your bin collection monthly (or less frequently) according to our roster. To be eligible for payment (at 6c per item) you’ll need to ensure you have at least 200 eligible deposit bottles and cans in the bin.
Eligible deposit bottles and cans are those plastic, glass and aluminium items that bear the 10c deposit in SA icon.
The funds will deposited into your nominated bank account – either your own account or that of another person or charity of your choice.
Note: You will need to book your collections online via our website. Email reminders will be sent but it is your responsibility to ensure your bin collection is BOOKED prior to collection day. This is NOT an automatic service.
