Recycle 10-cent bottles and cans for a tax-free refund.

Your yellow bin is ok, but 100% Clean Recycling is better.

Even if you do the right thing with your yellow bin, your recycling can still end up in landfill — your neighbours putting the wrong items in their bins could contaminate the whole truckload.

We make sure your eligible bottles and cans are recycled — and we pay you 10¢ per container. That’s a win-win. Find your nearest drop-off location or book a pickup. Let’s put the circular economy into action.
