From 1 July 2026, the Containers for Change scheme is expanding, making it even easier for Western Australians to recycle and earn a 10¢ refund on eligible beverage containers.
The expanded scheme will now include:
- Wine bottles
- Spirit bottles
- All fruit and vegetable juice containers
- Flavoured milk containers
- Cordial containers
- Wine and water casks (and more)
This means that from 1 July, almost all beverage containers between 150mL and 3L will be eligible for a refund at Containers for Change refund points across Western Australia.
Please note that some products, including plain milk, certain medical drinks and flavouring syrups, will remain ineligible.
Start saving those extra containers now and turn your recycling into rewards whilst helping reduce waste in the Shire of Gingin!
