Join us in creating a greener future for everyone—partner with Sandgate Bottle & Can Exchange today and start making a difference with every container you recycle.

Our Mission

At Sandgate Bottle & Can Exchange, we’re on a mission to expand the Partners for Change Program and revolutionize how our local community recycles their containers. As a small business with big ambitions, we aim to empower businesses of all sizes to join us in making a significant impact. We demonstrate the value of recycling by offering a simple process: buy your favorite drinks, return the empties to a convenient refund point, and collect 10 cents for each eligible container. These containers are then processed and sent to accredited recyclers, transforming them into new products. By expanding our program, we’re keeping our environment clean and our communities strong, one container at a time.

Never-Ending Potential

The Partners for Change Program offers significant benefits to businesses and organizations by turning waste into valuable resources. For instance, a small local business in Brighton has recycled 9,610 containers annually, saving 23.5 wheelie bins of landfill space and earning $961. A larger business has recycled 27,002 containers, saving 46.1 wheelie bins of landfill space and earning $2,700.20. Both examples highlight how the program reduces greenhouse gas emissions and provides financial returns with no service fees. With branded bins, detailed recycling data, and no setup costs, our program helps businesses make a lasting environmental impact.

Making it Easy for Your Organisation

We pride ourselves on being the only commercial option that offers the full 10 cents per container without any service fees. This means you receive the maximum refund for every container you recycle, providing a direct financial benefit to your business while supporting environmental initiatives.

We provide detailed data on your recycling efforts, helping you to track your progress and meet your sustainability goals. Our reports link your container collections to environmental and social indices, giving you valuable insights into the positive impact your business is making.

There are no setup or ongoing costs involved in our program. We supply you with collection bins and other necessary infrastructure free of charge. This allows you to focus on recycling without worrying about additional expenses, making it easy and cost-effective to participate

To enhance visibility and encourage participation, we offer recognisable branded bins for high-foot traffic areas. These bins are designed to be easily identifiable, promoting proper disposal of containers and reinforcing your commitment to sustainability.
