Scan, Bin and Win with Curby Rewards 

Our mission is to collect and process as much soft plastics as possible, and in order to do that, we recognise the need for a formalised incentive program that rewards you while making it easier for you to recycle soft plastics. This is where Curby Rewards comes in.

Introducing Curby Rewards

A first of its kind program where you can win great prizes by simply recycling your soft plastics. With Curby Rewards, not only do you get rewarded for recycling your soft plastics, but you will be provided program bags based on your subscription tier. This is everything you need to get started so it is as convenient and hassle free as possible. You can recycle having confidence that your soft plastics end up where they should.

Chance to win great prizes 

For every Curby program bag scanned you will receive entries to both the Curby Monthly and Annual Prize Draws.

The Curby Monthly Prize Draw has three (3) major prizes of $1,000 and ten (10) secondary prizes of $200. All entries awarded during a month will automatically go into that month’s prize draw.

The Curby Annual Prize Draw has three (3) major prizes of $10,000. All entries awarded during the year will automatically go into the annual prize draw.

2. Fill your Curby Rewards program bag with clean soft plastics  

We accept clean, soft or flexible plastics placed inside a soft plastic bag. 

Common soft plastics include:

• Soft Plastic Snack wrappers
• Foil lined Chip packets
• Soft Plastic Fresh produce bags
• Soft Plastic Fruit netting (with the metal bits cut off)
• Soft Plastic Toilet paper wrapping
• Plastic carry bags
• Protective plastic film used in consumer goods packaging
• Dry pet food bags
• Cling wrap
• Any “scrunchable” soft plastics labelled with the 2, 4 or 5 recycling numbers
• Empty packaging with the ‘Return to Store’ or ‘Store Drop Off’ ARL (Australasian Recycling Label) symbol

Keep an ear out! Soft plastics will generally be scrunched into a ball without making a loud crunch noise. Biscuit trays are an example of something that is commonly mistaken for soft plastics.

If you aren’t sure, email us (support@curbcycle.com.au) a photo of the packaging and we’ll tell you! 

Be sure to fill your bag as full as possible before tying it tightly and scanning the QR code.

3. Scan the QR Code on your Curby Rewards bag   

Once your bag is full, simply scan the QR code with the Curby Web App and place it in your yellow lidded kerbside recycling bin (where your council has approved) or take it to your nearest return to store drop off point. 

Activating the QR code is the first step in helping provide traceability of soft plastics from the moment you drop it in a participating bin to its new life once it’s been recycled – in whatever shape that may take. Importantly it’s how we know that our individual effort is keeping soft plastics out of landfill and our environment. 

It’s also how you receive entries to the relevant Monthly Prize Draw and Annual Prize Draw.

4. Recycle your Curby Rewards bag

The App will let you know if Kerbside recycling is available in your area or where your nearest drop off point is. As long as you drop your bag off where the app guides you, you can have confidence that your bag will be recycled.
