English As a Second Language

I'm looking for a term people would use on a day to day basis for the machines where you return empty bottles/cans and earn your deposit back. Wikipedia calls them [Reverse Vending Machine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_vending_machine) but my Anglophone friend and I don't believe that's a term people would use on the street. ChatGPT says the most commonly used term in the UK is "Bottle Return Machine" or "Bottle Return" but I can't find sources on the web for that. TIA!
