Thanks for taking part in the 2025 Coca‑Cola Recycling Drive.

Nominations are now closed for the Coca‑Cola Recycling Drive grants. 

Remember, every eligible bottle and can recycled through your local Container Deposit Scheme (CDS) earns a 10¢ refund - a simple way to turn recycling into funding.

Each state runs its own CDS program - like Return and Earn (NSW), Containers for Change (QLD & WA), Recycle Rewards (TAS), SA Container Deposit Scheme (SA), NT Container Deposit Scheme (NT), ACT CDS (ACT) and CDS VIC (VIC) - making it easy for community groups to collect or receive donations.

For more information about how to recycle and to find your local CDS, visit our sustainability hub.
