Narrandera, NSW Return and Earn Machines Recycling
Four machines produced by TOMRA issue a $0.10 AUD refund for every deposited recyclable item. Patrons choose to receive vouchers to Coles Supermarkets or donate their refunds to local charities. TOMRA's mobile app keeps track of recyclable item categories not currently accepted based on machine capacity. Narrandera makes the Return and Earn Machines available during the same hours as the Waste Depot to help residents consolidate their drop-offs.
