Containers for Change:

Turn Your Recycling into Action to Save Victoria Park

Here’s a simple, powerful way you can help protect Victoria Park Barrambin - just by recycling your drink containers.

Save Victoria Park has partnered with Containers for Change to make it easier than ever to raise vital funds for our campaign to stop the State Government’s proposed stadiums and protect this precious green space for future generations.

Every container you return and recycle not only keeps waste out of landfill, it also helps fund the fight to protect one of Brisbane’s most significant natural and cultural landscapes. It’s a small action with a big impact, and a fun way to get the whole family involved in creating change.

Follow the below steps to get started!

STEP 1: Collect Eligible Containers

Most aluminium, glass, plastic, steel and liquid paperboard drink containers between 150ml and 3L are eligible for a 10-cent refund. These are often the containers we use ‘on the go’.

Tip: Check for the 10-cent mark or scan the container’s barcode on the Containers for Change website to confirm eligibility. You can check container barcodes here: containersforchange.com.au/qld/how-it-works
