Discussion | Beverage Container Return Scheme BCRS

[Ironside]

all single individual plastic packaging for your coffee, tea, those supermarket plastic bag, plastic bag that wraps vegetables

all add 10 cents, and refund via BCRS machine

we should put in greater effort to recycle and save earth

How about BMI tax?

Gahmen want take money from chiu , there's 1001 ways they can "justify" for it

It will be shocking if these companies can't afford the ten cents per drink and i think $500 ? for each line of drink they have

I don't mind the initiative but for FFS can they install more of the machines since obviously more people are using it now that its full implementation.

Clearly the machines require to be cleared quite frequently and it gets full pretty fast.

All you need is one person who comes with a big bag of bottles/cans or someone from a F&B store there to recycle what the store has used and the machine will probably be mostly full, messed up for those that only have one or two and want to get back their deposit.

The ones in the neighbourhood are filthy and reeks of alcohol.
