Our food and drink has a sticky problem that we can’t ignore: Waste. Fortunately, organisations like OzHarvest and the ACT Container Deposit Scheme are working hard to turn waste into resources that help the community and environment.
When you return your empty drink containers through the ACT Container Deposit Scheme, you can donate your refund to OzHarvest and support them as they save food from landfill and provide meals to people in need.

- Take your bag/s of drink containers to a Drop & Go Pod or Point
