PUBLIC SPACES
A new way to return
A Containers for Change Pay It Forward station provides a simple solution for container waste in public spaces.
Installed in partnership with local councils, these baskets and docking stations attach to existing bins. Instead of throwing your empty containers into the general rubbish, you can use Pay It Forward stations to do your bit for the environment and help the local community.
The containers can be picked up by someone who wants them and returned to a refund point nearby. The collector may choose to keep the 10 cent refunds for themselves or donate it to a charity or community group.
How it works
Drop them
When you are out and about, check the general waste bin to see if there is a Pay It Forward station attached. If you have an empty 10 cent container, drop it off.
Collect them
Fancy yourself a container collector? Eligible containers left at Pay It Forward stations are free to collect and return to a refund point for 10 cents each.
Renew them
By dropping or collecting containers at a Pay It Forward station, you'll be saving them from landfill and giving them a chance at becoming something new.
