Depots
Depots are large 10¢ container-counting facilities (similar to warehouses) with operators that count your containers for you. Some Depots also offer drive-through or Drop & Go services.
Depots are independently run by a range of operators — from not-for-profits and local families, to large businesses. Search for your local Depot, and check opening hours and available services below.

Self-serve Depots
If you're looking for a contact-free experience, Self-serve Depots are for you. Equipped with self-checkout facilities, you can count and return your 10¢ containers with ease. Select your preferred refund method when making a return to ensure it's sent to the right place.
At some Self-serve Depots, staff are available if you require assistance.

Pop-up Depots
Pop-up Depots can be found at busy community locations like parks, schools, and markets. Much like Depots (only smaller!), staff will sort and count your 10¢ containers for you, on the spot. If you're on the move, some locations also offer a Drop & Go option.
Keep an eye on opening hours, as Pop-up Depots are usually open on certain days of the week.
