Why Return‑It?
Because it's worth it!
We’ve been refunding Queenslanders since 2018!
Return-It officially launched in Queensland on 1 November 2018, bringing a ‘change for good’ to Queenslanders. Before you throw your eligible containers away, we encourage you to think about our social responsibility model and charity support. Return-It is an easy way to deposit containers whilst helping the environment and community, encouraging you to ‘create a habit’ of recycling for a greener future.
The Retail Store.
A deposit for recycling will be included in the price of eligible containers that you purchase from your favourite retail store. So, when you get you get your 10-cent refund for each container your return you’re getting back your own money!
You the consumer
A refund will be provided per eligible container you return at a Return-It Queensland Express or Depot location, which you can choose to save or donate to charity. By not returning your eligible container, you are effectively ‘out-of-pocket’. It is financially and environmentally worth it to Return-It. Every container has the potential to live another life, and every Aussie has the potential to help recyclable items stay out of our oceans, parks and landfill… and to donate their refund.
