Eligible beverage containers returned through CDS Victoria refund points are worth 10 cents each. The total amount received depends on the number of eligible containers you return.
Eligible containers generally display the CDS refund mark or are listed in the scheme's approved container database. Containers should be empty, uncrushed where required, and in a condition that allows identification.
You can return your eligible containers at any CDS Victoria refund point across the state. Simply locate the nearest refund point using our interactive map or visit our website for more information.
Yes. Many refund points allow you to direct your container refunds to registered charities, schools, sporting clubs, and community organisations participating in the scheme.
First check that the container is eligible, empty, and has a readable barcode or identifier. If you believe the container should be accepted, contact CDS Victoria support and provide details of the container and the refund point visited.
