25.01.2022 How do you sort your recycling at home? Laura Wells has some helpful tips for splitting your waste, great for our new recyclers in WA!

25.01.2022 Congratulations to NSW Recyclers - you have returned 5 billion containers through Return and Earn in just over three years! It's an awesome achievement. Fun fact: If you stacked every bottle and can returned, it would reach the moon and then 80% of the way back to Earth.

24.01.2022 #NationalRecyclingWeek - We mostly know of recycling as bottles being turned back into bottles and cans back into cans. But there are other innovative ways we've seen recycling used: Lids for Kids - Bottle lids being turned into prosthetics for kids with disabilities Sustainable Salons - collecting hair to be used to soak up ocean oil spills Dresden Vision - using plastic to make glasses frames... Each of these organisations is using innovative ways to turn items that would otherwise be thrown away, into something that can benefit others. We recommend checking them out, and how they contribute to the circular economy.

19.01.2022 Just a reminder that we are closed tomorrow - and we often get asked the question as to why the Reverse Vending Machines are closed. Our RVMs don’t need public holidays but our hard-working collections, customer service, and technician teams do. We only close for two days in a calendar year - Christmas Day and Easter Friday - to ensure that our hard-working team gets a well-earned rest. For full opening and closure times over the holiday period, visit our website: ... www.mytomra.com.au/holiday-hours-2020/ See more

18.01.2022 Pre-pandemic, Australians made great progress on phasing out single-use plastics, like straws and cups. We can resume the good efforts to curb single-use plastic. http://ow.ly/CT5550DbNKH

18.01.2022 The circular economy is transforming the way we use and reuse resources, reducing waste and improving the sustainability of our planet. But what is the circular economy, and how does it work? http://ow.ly/qmoG50DpMjI

18.01.2022 Our Recycling Centres are so family friendly, even puppies are returning their containers. Meet Lina, the rescue greyhound, who decided to do her recycling at our return point in Osborne Park! #ContainersforchangeWA #Recycle #TOMRA Containers for Change WA

17.01.2022 #SustainableChristmasTips - One of the best ways to add sustainability to your Christmas is to purchase used or buy thrift. By doing so, you're giving unfound or unloved toys a new life and keeping them out of the litter stream.

16.01.2022 Congratulations to the Tasmanian Government on backing the best possible Container Refund Scheme for Tasmania. The split-responsibility model Minister Jaensch and the Gutwein Government have endorsed is a big win for the environment, the community, and the economy. Ryan Buzzell, President of TOMRA Collection Solutions, said: This split-responsibility model is a proven way of boosting recycling, reducing litter and creating new jobs in the circular economy. Delivering this scheme design will also provide fantastic fundraising opportunities for Tassie charities, community groups and local sporting clubs." Read more about it: http://ow.ly/OXeP50DqOTV

16.01.2022 "Making that first step out for help is a big deal, particularly when you've been so self-sufficient for so long" Donations to the Salvation Army, big or small, will help Aussies doing it tough and help them manage their finances and regain a sense of self-worthiness and love. Go to bottlescanchangelives.org.au to find your nearest return point, and donate your bottles and cans to help Aussies in need. #bottlescanchangelives #containersforchange #Returnandearn The Salvation Army Australia

16.01.2022 We’re excited about the #containersforchangeWA scheme. We’ve brought FIVE modern Recycling Centres to Western Australia so you can get a 10c refund for your eligible containers.

Our modern Recycling Centres are world-class, making us the fast, family-friendly, and rewarding way to recycle. Our reverse vending machines can process up to 100 containers per minute, ensuring your returns are quick and easy.

16.01.2022 We can still barely comprehend reaching 5 billion containers returned through Return and Earn! Amazing effort from recyclers across NSW.

15.01.2022 Happy 3rd Birthday Return and Earn It's been 3 years since NSW introduced a CDS, and thanks to recyclers across the state, we've seen over 4.6 Billion containers returned in NSW. Thanks to your efforts, over 70% of all beverage containers now avoid the litter stream. Great job.

15.01.2022 #SustainableChristmasTips - Keep your used beverage containers after your Christmas celebrations, and then bring them to a TOMRA Recycling Centre or Return and Earn reverse vending machine. This ensures they get recycled back into bottles and cans.

13.01.2022 $100,000 in donations so far for Bottles Can Change Lives! That’s more than 1 Million drink containers donated. Thank you to everyone who donated to OzHarvest, Beyond Blue, and The Salvation Army Australia - your efforts are supporting members in our community who are doing it tough, many reaching out to these charities for the first time.

11.01.2022 We always get excited when a state reveals more about an upcoming Container Deposit Scheme. Victoria's CDS, beginning in 2023, will be a split responsibility model, which means it will be easier for consumers to return their containers for recycling and ensure high return rates. This is a clear signal that the Victoria CDS will be world-class.

11.01.2022 Over $250,000 raised for Aussies doing it tough through the #BottlesCanChangeLives recycling appeal. Your generous donations have helped change the lives of over 143,000 members of our community doing it tough. Helped 2,415 individuals seeking support from a mental health professional by either phone call, web chat or email through Beyond Blue's 24/7 Support Service 136,382 meals delivered to Aussies struggling to put food on the table OzHarvest 4,620 essential supplies provided to families and individuals in crisis The Salvation Army Australia

10.01.2022 Interesting study on the effects of biodegradable eco-glitter. It's important to choose products that can be recycled or repurposed to ensure we manage our waste responsibly. https://www.theguardian.com//eco-glitter-causes-same-damag

10.01.2022 Have you checked out the Journey of the Bottle yet? We often get the question, where is our recycling going? And this film looks to answer that question. Follow the journey of a plastic bottle as it gets returned through a Reverse Vending Machine and then recycled into a new drink bottle.

08.01.2022 An incredible achievement from recyclers across NSW - 195 Million containers returned for recycling through Return and Earn

06.01.2022 Ryan Buzzell, President of TOMRA Collection Solutions Australia, is participating in Take 3's CEO Clean Up in the Central Coast today. In just 45 minutes, they have collected over 100kg of litter! A great effort from everyone involved.

05.01.2022 This week is #NationalRecyclingWeek. We often take it for granted, but recycling is a core part of our lives. Not just in undertaking recycling as a form of waste disposal, but also as a way of claiming materials for use in products. At TOMRA, we believe waste is a resource. Check out this video of how recycling through a container deposit system can lead to Clean Loop Recycling - where bottles are turned back into bottles and cans back into cans.

05.01.2022 Happy New Years from the TOMRA Team. 2020 has been a challenging year, but we wish everyone all the best in 2021.

04.01.2022 With microplastics now found at both the top of Mount Everest and the bottom of the Mariana Trench, plastic is now at both the highest and lowest parts of the planet. We can prevent it from spreading further by recycling the plastics we do use. http://ow.ly/G8w650CsZ8L

02.01.2022 Merry Christmas from everyone here at TOMRA. Just a reminder we're closed today across all sites in NSW, QLD, WA, and NT.

02.01.2022 Today is #RideToWork day, and whether you're out riding to your office, or just for fun, you may spot a bottle or can along the way. Pick it up, and ensure it gets recycled to keep it out of the litter stream and ensure it has a new life.
