Want to improve the environmental outlook of your business? Looking to get your kids interested in recycling? Take part in the Containers for Change initiative! At Mareeba Recycling, we offer a 10-cent refund for all eligible containers returned. You can reduce waste and earn a little pocket money at the same time!
Our goal is to make recycling as convenient and hassle-free as possible, encouraging
individuals,
businesses and
community groups to get involved. Not only does recycling reduce the volume of plastic, aluminium and glass that ends up in landfill, but it can also be a way for businesses and community groups to run ongoing fundraising drives! To find out more, visit our recycle centre in Mareeba.

A range of common household containers can be recycled under the Containers for Change scheme, including plastic, glass, aluminium and liquid paperboard beverage containers. We accept all eligible containers at Mareeba Recycling.

Finding Eligible Containers
To check if a container is recyclable under the initiative, you can search the barcode or product type through the Containers for Change eligibility checker. Mareeba Recycling accepts most aluminium, glass, plastic, steel and liquid paperboard beverage containers between 150ml and 3L, including common cans and bottles.
There are a number of undersized or oversized containers that are not eligible for a 10-cent refund. However, these items can still be recycled through council programs, such as the yellow-lidded kerbside collection bins. Want to get in touch? Call our friendly team on
0436 663 336.
