@ray_cun Is there a reason in year 2024 why the deposit is not returned to our bank card?

@Terrymeyler These are for plastic bottles and cans. The glass bottle banks are staying as they are.

@ray_cun It would be great if they could improve their bicycle parking too. Unless I'm missing something, it's minimal and poor. Some Sheffield stands would be nice.

@AJWard_D20 There are three decent stands, not enough for a shop this size, I agree.

@ray_cun Does the machine know the bottle came from that shop ? Or can someone collect bottles from anywhere and throw them in

@Stew_Ped_Kunt You can return bottles from any shop to any shop that sells bottles.

@ray_cun Which we then have to drive to with bags in the car creating more emissions.

@SeanDeartha You can walk or cycle to the shop, or hold onto the bottles until next time you are driving.

@ray_cun It's a pointless scheme. You can't crush the bottles and they have to have a special code.

@ray_cun What is the definition of undamaged for this scheme. Like cans can’t have dents or bottles can’t be pressed down.Are both not melted down and reused as basic materials. Or are they to be washed and used again which will prob cost more for companies. Do we have to clean them?

@davidgrainger4 There is a barcode on the bottles and cans that has to be readable.

@ray_cun cool, so I'll need to drive back with my cans and bottles rather than use the recycling bin I already pay for, that'll bring down carbon emissions?
