I’m looking for a term people would use on a day to day basis for the machines where you return empty bottles/cans and earn your deposit back.

Wikipedia calls them Reverse Vending Machine but my Anglophone friend and I don’t believe that’s a term people would use on the street.

ChatGPT says the most commonly used term in the UK is “Bottle Return Machine” or “Bottle Return” but I can’t find sources on the web for that.

TIA!

    I call those bottle returns. I’m in the US if that helps.
