Help make your neighbourhood greener and get a cash rebate.

Western Australians wanting to make their neighbourhood greener can purchase up to five native trees for their backyard and claim a rebate, with the second year of Treebate now open.

After a successful first year supporting the planting of more than 10,000 trees across WA yards, Treebate has expanded in its second year to include the purchase of up to five native trees, worth a total of $150.

Anyone who made a claim in year one of Treebate is also eligible to claim in year two, with a further 10,000 Treebates now available to claim.

It’s as easy as One, Two, Tree.

One: Buy up to five trees. Two: Plant your trees. Tree: Make a claim via ServiceWA.

And don’t forget you’ll need to keep your tax invoice and a photo of the plant label/s to get your rebate. All purchases must be on a single itemised tax invoice.

The State Government is committed to strengthening WA’s urban canopy for the future. 

Eligibility

All Western Australians aged 18 years and over are eligible to claim up to five native trees per program year.

Requirements for making a claim

To submit a claim you will need:

  • A photo of the plant labels showing the scientific or common name of the trees purchased,
  • A valid tax invoice that shows the retailer’s Australian Business Number (ABN), the receipt number, itemised trees purchased, purchase date and total amount paid. All purchases must be on a single itemised tax invoice.
  • 100 points of personal identification.
