About Us
Return‑It is a key part of Re.Group’s national recycling infrastructure, delivering container deposit scheme services on behalf of governments and communities across Australia. Proudly owned by Re.Group, a leading Australian recycling company, Return‑It operates an extensive network of container refund points, including depots, reverse vending machines and over‑the‑counter locations, making it easy for people to participate in recycling systems that deliver real environmental outcomes.
Backed by Re.Group’s deep expertise in designing, building and operating recycling infrastructure, Return‑It provides reliable, community‑focused services that support resource recovery, reduce waste to landfill, and contribute to local economic activity.
Return-It launched in the ACT in 2018, helping launch the state’s container deposit scheme, building a network that works for all Canberrans. Whether you're returning just a few bottles or a carload, Return-It is here to make recycling simple, accessible, and rewarding.
