Congratulations to the community on returning 4 million containers to the Cove Hill Recycle Rewards refund point.

Cove Hill is the third busiest refund point in Tasmania, with an average of 18,000 eligible drink containers returned every day.

In late December, Tasmanians returned an impressive 528,646 eligible drink containers on Saturday 20 December, and another 510,860 on Sunday 21 December. The surge in returns was seen across refund points, demonstrating widespread community participation.

The total number of eligible drink containers returned since Recycle Rewards began on 1 May has now surpassed 65 million.

These numbers highlight Tasmania’s growing commitment to recycling, reducing litter and keeping valuable materials in circulation.
