Sign up for a Containers for Change Scheme ID
In order to use the Express Bag Drop service you will need to create a Containers for Change Scheme ID. You can do this beforehand to save time, or you can ask our staff for assistance if you have any questions.
A scheme ID is a great way to track the change you’re making. Provide your scheme ID barcode via your digital wallet or app and your refund will go directly into your preferred account - whether that’s your bank account, PayPal account, or favourite charity cause.
Visit the Containers for Change website to sign up for a Scheme ID.
Do I have to use a bag to use Bag Drop?
Absolutely not! You can use whatever vessel is most convenient for you. We do recommend using reusable tubs, baskets and bags where possible. Don’t have a reusable bag? Ask one of the friendly TOMRA staff for a free reusable bag that is made from recycled materials.
When will you receive your refund?
Your full refund will be transferred into your nominated account within 1 business day, but usually within the hour!
Have any questions? Please do not hesitate to ask our friendly staff on site. Happy Recycling!
