    Forget Coles, Woolworths, Hotels etc. They will just find another way to rip us off.
    Lets set up a scheme where schools, sports clubs and community organisations are the collection sites so these worthy pillars of our community harvest the income from a container deposit scheme. Example – I have 20 containers. I am not much interested in the $2 I would get by cashing them in but I would be happy to ‘donate’ at my children’s school or junior sporting club. Leaving the container deposit scheme with the big guys is like leaving Dracula in charge of the blood bank.

    A 10-cent refundable container deposit system will slash the amount of litter polluting our parks, streets, rivers and ocean. It will create new jobs in recycling and provide valuable sources of income for charities, community groups and individuals interested in collecting cans and bottles.

    Our Cash for Containers model is based on the best examples in the world and has big benefits for the entire community, economy and environment. Read more about our model here and the benefits for your organisation here.

    If your organisation is on board, add your name today.

We acknowledge that the name of our organisation includes the name of the Aboriginal tool, the BOOMERANG, adopted for the symbolism of returning to the user. We hope that the resources we use, which all come from the land, will be part of a circular economy and return to that economy again and again. We respectfully commit to Care for Country in the spirit of the Indigenous custodians of this land and these waters. We recognise that there has never been compensation for stolen country. We continue to show our respect to Indigenous leaders, past, present and emerging. May we all walk respectfully on the land and protect the waterways which are life.
