While feeding the bottles and cans into the machine, try doing it at a slightly slower pace so the machine doesn't get backed up. This will also reduce the number of rejected items since the machine will have more time to detect and scan the barcode
That machine has problems but omg right here that plastic and a can went to the plastic section 😮 7:08 if the roller goes to the right it’s going the plastic section and where did that can come from!?!?
Very nice video. But sad to see that your machines are that slow in working progress, and you get only 5 - 10 cents per bottle. In Germany we have machines that doesnt need to spin the bottle any more and we get 25cents per bottle/can
Not all of the machines here in Michigan are exactly like this, we do have a lot of TOMRA T-90s which don’t spin to the read the barcode. Also don’t forget you can’t always compare the money I make here in the US to Germany due to the currency difference. I just looked it up on Google and 1 US dollar (10 returnables) is 0.96 Euro which would probably be worth more considering you said you get 25 cents per container. So yes indeed you do make more money it appears
@@-john-9438 That is true, but at least I can say that Michigan and Oregon are the only 2 states that give you the most for bottles and cans. Other states give you 5 cents per returnable.
United States. Bottles and Cans are rejected if the barcode cannot be read or the store doesn’t sell the particular drink. Otherwise if the store sells that specific drink, the machines will take it even if it was purchased from a different store

@@Jamestube8439 Yeah but 1 Dollar is ( ↑↓) 1 Euro / (4bottles/cans)

We are due to have this sort of scheme in the uk will be getting 20 p a bottle can and tin
@@waqasahmad8015 that’s awesome! Hope it gets started up soon!
YAY I love those things
Me too! I actually happened to use some today to make another video
That's awesome
Thanks!
What country is this? Why are some cans rejected?
United States. Bottles and Cans are rejected if the barcode cannot be read or the store doesn’t sell the particular drink. Otherwise if the store sells that specific drink, the machines will take it even if it was purchased from a different store
@@Jamestube8439Also if they are squashed/heavily damaged.
The ones I use sometimes reject up n go milk containers
Try a different machine. I have one that sneezes up Farris Bris containers.
I’m located in Norway and i do can picking as a side thing. There’s loads of cans if you know where to look.
Ah very nice. I do it as a small side hustle here in the US.
@@Jamestube8439 Same. There’s cans and bottles everywhere - it’s profitable and not much work at all
11:32 The machine got jammed
Nah, it's just it was having trouble gripping the can for the rollers to push it in to the spin section.
