Eligible Containers
Most aluminium, glass, plastic, steel and liquid paperboard beverage containers between 150ml and 3 litre are eligible for a refund. To be eligible the beverage container must:
- Have contained a beverage product that is not excluded from the scheme. For example, cordials and plain milk are not included in the scheme so containers that have held these products are not eligible for a refund.
- Display the refund mark.
- Be an approved container. Some containers are made from materials that cannot be recycled. These containers may not be approved (by the Western Australia Government) as an eligible container as the scheme requires that when a refund is paid on a container, that container must be recycled.
In all cases, please be sure all containers are empty and lids removed.
We accept crushed cans!
Ineligible Containers
There are some beverage containers that are not eligible for a refund. Generally, ineligible containers are those that are less than 150ml and greater than 3 litre. Other ineligible containers include:
- Any plain milk containers.
- Any glass containers which have contained wine or pure spirits.
- Containers 1 litre or more which have contained flavoured milk, pure fruit or vegetable juice, cask wine or cask water.
- Concentrated/undiluted cordial or syrup containers.
- Sachets above 250ml which have contained wine.
- Registered health tonics.
Most ineligible containers, such as plain milk bottles and glass wine bottles, can still be recycled through existing kerbside collection or drop-off services.
