These would help many of our Super Collectors with their searches for BinCoin. Not only would it save them time, but also make it safer as they wouldn’t need to rummage through rubbish bins.Did you know Queensland councils can get Container Exchange Points (CEPs) for free?
Those handy little baskets attached to public bins make it easy to recycle eligible 10c containers while you're out and about.
They're a simple way to keep containers out of landfill, help keep parks and beaches cleaner, and give someone else the chance to collect your container and claim the refund.
If you would like these installed in your local community, ask your local council to get in touch, or if you work for a council, we'd love to hear from you at governmentrelations@containerexchange.com.au. ... See MoreSee Less
