Comments Off on Australia’s Reverse Vending – Recycling Automated Machines Gives Cash

Australia always seems ahead of the game and now they shine again with their Envirobank, Reverse Vending

A reverse vending machine is a device that accepts used (empty) beverage containers and returns money to the user. The machines are popular in places that have mandatory recycling laws or container deposit legislation. In some places, bottlers paid funds into a centralized pool to be disbursed to people who recycled the containers. Any excess funds were to be used for general environmental cleanup.^[1] In other places, such as Norway, the state mandated that a vendor pay for recycled bottles, but left the system in the hands of private industry.

The main vendors of reverse vending machines are Tomra of Norway and Wincor Nixdorf of Germany, and Envipco of USA and Reverse Vending Corporation

VendaCarts would make recycling mobile, the 18ft. could hold from 4 to 6 machines.
