Container deposit scheme
Jackson TAYLOR (Bayswater) (10:18): I just want to give a shout-out to all the Knox residents who have now donated over 50,000 containers into reverse vending machines and into the container deposit scheme since it was first launched, putting $5 million back into the pockets of locals, not-for-profits and everyone in between – such a massive milestone. This container deposit scheme since launch in Victoria has gone from strength to strength, and it is great to see it going gangbusters in Knox. Of course it was great to talk to the operator, Visy, in our area the other day, to hear that there will be another reverse vending machine coming to our part of the world to make it even easier to get your 10 cents back for a container.
