Reverse vending machine

A reverse vending machine is an EPP-approved automatic machine that retailers can use for collecting deposit-subjected packagings from end users and end consumers. There are two types of reverse vending machines: with or without a press. A reverse vending machine without a press collects the packagings as-is; a reverse vending machine with a press presses the plastic bottles and jars together. The compensation for the retailer is higher if using a reverse vending machine with a press. See the compensation rates HERE.
