      Yeah I’ve seen the bins and that’s about it since an employee had to empty the bin to make room for more cans

    OMG that’s amazing! Unfortunately, there’s no program like that in California. It’s just recycling centers that give refunds by pounds of recyclable.

    Cool. What's the purpose of a reverse vending machine? Also, what are it's cons?

    • @Jamestube8439

      The purpose is to return recyclables so they can go back to the original sellers. By doing this, they reward you with a 10 cent refund for every returnable.
