♻️ Cash Back - Serving Sydney South

Rockdale Return and Earn provides a convenient local option for households, businesses, schools, sporting clubs and community organisations across Sydney South to recycle eligible bottles and cans and receive their NSW Return and Earn refunds.

With an automated depot conveniently located in Rockdale, customers can bring their eligible containers directly to the facility or enquire about collection services for larger quantities.

📍 Return and Earn Depot in Rockdale

Located at 17D Bermill Street, Rockdale NSW 2216, the Rockdale Return and Earn depot provides an easy alternative to feeding bottles and cans individually into a reverse vending machine.

Simply bring your eligible containers to the depot and let the team take care of the processing. Both small and large quantities are welcome, making the service suitable for everyday household recycling as well as clubs, organisations and commercial customers.

💰 Get Your 10c Container Refund

Eligible drink containers returned through the NSW Return and Earn scheme attract a 10-cent refund per container. Saving bottles and cans can quickly add up, particularly for families, workplaces, hospitality businesses, schools and organisations generating larger quantities.
