You can help animals in need by recycling eligible drink containers?

You can donate your 10c refund to RSPCA WA when you recycle your bottles and cans. It doesn't sound like much, but every little bit helps and it all adds up to helping rescue, rehabilitate and rehome animals in need.

 

How does recycling your drink containers help animals?

1. You can donate your Containers for Change refund to RSPCA WA, and help to keep Inspectors on the road, provide comfortable shelter and medical care for animals, and help animals find new homes; and
2. by recycling, you're keeping potentially dangerous plastics and glass out of harm's way - protecting pets and wildlife at the same time.

How do I donate my Containers for Change refund to RSPCA WA?

At an exchange depot or recycling centre, tell the attendants there that you want to donate your refund to RSPCA WA. You might need this scheme ID:

RSPCA WA Scheme ID: C10264579

If you're recycling at an automated machine, you can choose RSPCA WA from the list of charities, enter the RSPCA WA Scheme ID, or scan this barcode or QR Code.

OR, you can drop your containers off at the RSPCA WA Animal Care Centre where we have a large recycling bin. Its the easiest way to do it - no need to remember a code or our Scheme ID - just drop your eligible containers in the recycling bin and drive away. We'll take care of the rest.
