CDS Vic Reverse vending machine opens in Armstrong Creek

Recycling your containers with Victoria’s Container Deposit Scheme has been made even easier for Armstrong Creek residents with the installation of a new CDS Vic reverse vending machine (RVM) at The Village Warralilly Shopping Centre.

This new RVM will provide local residents and visitors along the Bellarine an efficient and rewarding way to recycle their drink bottles, cans and cartons with CDS Vic – rewarding them with a 10c refund for every eligible drink container returned.

“We’re excited to see the positive impact this machine will have on the Greater Geelong Community.”
