Container Deposit Scheme.
To utilise the CDS for the benefit of CHoB, you need to load the “app” onto your smart phone.
In short you have to:-
download the CDS Vic West app onto your smart phone, register yourself with the app, select the charity and make that your default payment option.
When you get to a CDS deposit collection point, login to the app on your phone and present the barcode to the machine, and start loading your containers.
Below are the methods for an Apple and Android phone.
Follow the steps based on the screen shots.
Apple.
Go to the Apple App store and search for “CDS Vic West” and select the “get” button.
You will be asked to install the app and may be asked to verify your account.
After the CDS app has been downloaded you will get a message like that below. It will be up to you if you want to be notified.
Android.
Go to the Android “Play Store” and search for CDS Vic West.
Install it on this device (a list will appear if you click the button and have more than one android registered for the Play Store).
Once installed, select the open button.
CDS Registration.
The following screen shots are the same for Apple and Android as you are now registering with the CDS system.
You only have to do this once.

You can do the following series of steps as often as you want to change your charity of choice.
Click on the “Charities” button.
