A deposit on packaging is a small extra fee added to the price of drinks sold in plastic or glass bottles and drink cans, which the consumers get back once they've returned the packaging for recycling. This deposit can be redeemed for cash.

4. When you consume drinks from single-use beverage containers away from home (e.g. park, festival, event…), would you like to have more options to return your packaging?*

I always find a place nearby where I can return my packaging and reclaim my deposit

I don’t care because I’ve gotten used to keep my waste with me and bring them home

Yes – it is a real issue because we don’t have enough return points out-of-home and I’m obliged to waste my packaging and lose my deposit

No, I don’t care about reclaiming my deposit and I throw my empty packaging in the outside garbage bins

5. When you are in a situation where you are not able to return your empty drink can back into the deposit return system because there are no return points nearby, do you leave your empty drink can in the same place where you consumed it?*

Yes, sometimes

Yes, very often
