Bottle, Can & Container Recycling
Container Deposit Scheme in Victoria
Victoria’s Container Deposit scheme has started. The scheme will reward people with a 10-cent refund for every eligible can, carton and bottle they return.
A vending machine has been installed at Lalor Plaza for your convenience or you are more than welcome to donate them to our school to support our fundraising.
CDS Vic will provide shared benefits to the community, environment and economy by delivering:
- more and better recycling
- less waste - old containers become new ones
- less litter - cut by up to half
- hundreds of new jobs and economic opportunities across Victoria
- a cleaner, greener state.
We are no longer able to accept juice boxes, as they are not emptied appropriately to enable easy recycling to occur.
Lalor East PS has now raised $100.70 from this recycling initiative, well done everyone!!
