Dear Launceston, Thank You 💛♻️

City Mission’s Recycle Rewards Launceston Depot has now reached 7,000,000 eligible containers returned, and we could not be more grateful 🙌

This milestone belongs to every person who has driven through with bags in the back seat, boxes in the boot, bins from the shed, or containers collected after work, school, sport or a weekend clean-up 🚗

It belongs to our regulars, families, local businesses, clubs, community groups and everyone who has chosen to return local 💛

Seven million containers is a huge recycling achievement, but it also means something more. Every return helps reduce waste, support better recycling, and contribute to City Mission programs transforming lives and communities across the North and North West ♻️

So to everyone who has rolled through Recycle Rewards Launceston, donated a refund, encouraged someone else to come down, or made container returns part of your routine - thank you 🙏

You helped make 7,000,000 happen 💛♻️

6,000,000 containers processed♻️
Launceston, this is huge 🙌

Six million eligible containers have now been returned through City Mission’s Recycle Rewards Launceston Depot - and that is no small thing 💛

Six million bottles and cans kept out of landfill. Six million chances to recycle better. Six million returns that show what happens when a community gets behind something that matters 👏

What we love most about this milestone is what it represents.

It represents people doing their bit - the regulars, the families, the businesses, the sports clubs, the weekend clean-outs, the quick drive-through drop-offs on the way home 🚗

And every single return helps create something bigger:
✅ Less litter in our environment
✅ More materials recycled into new products
✅ A cleaner, greener Tasmania
✅ Support for City Mission programs transforming lives and communities across the North and North West 💛

That is the power of choosing to return local. That is the power of a community showing up again and again 🤝

So to everyone who has rolled through our Launceston Depot with bags, boxes, bins and bootloads - thank you. You have helped make this happen 👌

Six million is an incredible milestone. But knowing this community, we’re not done yet 💪

Drive through. Drop off. Get your refund. Keep making an impact ♻️

Recycle Rewards

5,000,000 containers processed 🎉
Launnie… that’s next level 🙌

What started as a new recycling scheme has become something much bigger - a community movement, a shared routine, a drive-through that’s making a real difference ♻️

Five million containers returned through City Mission’s Recycle Rewards depot at 10 Swanston Drive. Five million small actions that add up to something powerful 💛

Because this isn’t just about bottles and cans.

It’s about:
✅ Keeping containers out of landfill
✅ Turning waste into new resources
✅ Choosing local impact
✅ Helping fund City Mission programs supporting people across Northern Tasmania 💛

Five million times, our community chose to do something good 👏

So thank you - for the bootloads, the quick stops after sport, the rainy-day drop-offs, and the “might as well” visits that all add up 🤝

And we’re not slowing down 💪

Drive through. Get your 10c refund. Keep backing your community 💛

5 million down. Let’s see how far we can go ♻️

02/03/2026

It’s looking wet again tomorrow in Launnie - but that doesn’t mean your recycling plans need to be washed out ☔️

City Mission's Recycle Rewards depot at 10 Swanston Drive is fully undercover and drive-through, so you can stay warm and dry in your car while we take care of the rest 🚗

No standing in the rain. No juggling soggy bags. No waiting around in the weather 💦

Just:
✅ Drive in
✅ Drop your containers
✅ Collect your 10c refund
✅ Head home dry

And the best part? Every eligible container returned through our City Mission depot helps support programs and services for people across Northern Tasmania. So even on a grey day, you’re still creating real impact in your community 💛

Rainy day recycling = smart planning 😉

01/02/2026

4,000,000 containers processed! 😎
Launceston… you did this 👏

Every bootload. Every bag. Every quick drive-through drop-off. Every “I’ll do it later” that finally became “Let’s go today.”

Together, you’ve helped us race past 4 million containers processed at City Mission Recycle Rewards Launceston Depot - and we’re already charging towards 5 million 🚗

And here’s the best part: this milestone isn’t just a big number. It’s real community impact.

✅ Less litter and landfill
✅ More recycling turned into new products
✅ A cleaner Tasmania
✅ And every return through our depot helps fund City Mission programs transforming communities across Northern Tasmania 💛

So from all of us - thank you 👌

You’ve made this happen. You’re powering this. You’re proving what a community can do when we all pull in the same direction 🥰

Now… let’s keep it rolling. Drive through. Drop off. Get your refund. Keep helping your community 💛

Same refund. Greater impact ♻️

“Want fries with that?” 🍟

Nope - we're not that kind of drive-through 😄

But we can turn your boot full of drink containers into cash that supports City Mission programs helping people in need right here in Tasmania 👏

Drive through our Launceston or Burnie depots. Drop your containers. Get paid 👌

Fries are on you😉

09/01/2026

Ever wondered how we can process your drink containers so quickly?

Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at our singulator in action - sorting and counting over 100 containers per minute!

Every can and bottle returned helps reduce landfill, support local community programs, and keep Tasmania beautiful.

Drop by one of our Burnie or Launceston depots and be part of the change.

Recycle right. Support local. Get rewarded.
