There are hundreds of refund points across Victoria, so look out for your local. The network has more than 600 refund points.
We’re excited to announce a partnership between Scouts Victoria and CDS Vic, designed to reward Scouts and Scout Groups for their commitment to container recycling.
To celebrate the upcoming first anniversary of the scheme's launch, CDS Vic will launch an interactive installation at Scienceworks to educate young Victorians about recycling.
CDS Vic is proud to announce its groundbreaking partnership with Tennis Victoria. This exciting initiative aims to reduce waste, promote recycling, and support grassroots tennis communities across the state to raise funds.

With different types of container refund points, you want to find the most convenient one for you. Typical container refund points include:
Insert eligible containers into the machine, where containers are scanned and verified. Please note lids are encouraged.
Walk-in or drive-through to get your containers counted and refunded on the spot. Best for large loads.
In some areas small businesses or organisations provide an over-the-counter service, essentially working like a mini depot.
CDS Vic encompasses three zones: the North, West and East zones.
