Reverse vending machine


Explanation:
A reverse vending machine is a device that accepts used (empty) beverage containers and returns money to the user (the reverse of the typical vending cycle). The machines are popular in places that have mandatory recycling laws or container deposit legislation.

Example sentence(s):
  • The RVM receives and detects PET and can containers. PET bottles and cans are compacted
