How it works

‘Bin Bypass’ docking stations retrofit existing street infrastructure to maximise access to revenue from Container Deposit Schemes. 

Passersby can place empty glass, plastic and aluminium beverage containers into the holes instead of putting them into a landfill bin or discarding them as litter. 

Container collectors can then safely and efficiently collect the containers and return them a nearby container refund facility where they’ll receive a financial incentive that would have otherwise (literally) gone to waste.

Key benefits

For Consumers

Provided with the option to leave containers for others to collect.

Currently less than 20% of Australian street bins provide consumers with an option to recycle.

For Container Collectors

Provided with a safe, legal, efficient and dignified way to collect containers in the public domain.

Easier access to revenue streams.

For Councils & Public Space Managers

Extend the life of public space bins by facilitating container recycling.

Reduction in waste and landfill management expenses.

Publicly enabling positive recycling behaviours.

Reduction in anti-social collection activities and damage to waste infrastructure.

For Container Deposit Scheme Operators

Maximise participation in container collection activities.

Decrease leakage of containers ending up in landfill or as litter. Each year 3.74 billion containers are not recycled in the 6 states and territories with Container Deposit Schemes in operation.

Public space branding opportunities for messaging and scheme promotion.

Fixes a broken link in the public space container recycling system.
