Recycle Rewards
Donate to us with Recycle Rewards!
Recycle Rewards is a container refund scheme where Tasmanians can recycle eligible drink containers for a 10 cent refund. It increases recycle rates, reduces litter and gives back to the community!
How does it work?
Across Tasmania there are now Recycle Rewards depots, where you can go and donate your eligible drink containers. Each donation is worth 10 cents, and you can choose to donate that 10 cents to a charity of your choice, including the St Vincent de Paul Society!

Where does your donation go?
Your donation goes straight to helping Vinnies provide emergency relief to struggling Tasmanians. That’s things like stocking our pantries and food vans, providing financial relief to those facing homelessness, keeping our homeless relief shelters open, providing youth programs and keeping all our other services running. Every donation helps us continue our good work.
