In less than two months since opening, the Queens Walk container refund point on Risdon Road in New Town has already chalked up an extraordinary 500,000 drink container returns.

New Town’s early success shows what happens when convenience meets commitment. Locals have lined up rain or shine, bringing in bags, crates and boxes filled with containers. Families have turned weekend recycling runs into regular rituals. Sporting clubs, schools and community groups have mobilised collections, finding in the scheme not just an environmental benefit but a welcome financial boost.
