Return DRS bottles and cans at participating stores
MOHU operates Hungary's national deposit return system under the 35-year waste concession, reverse-vending machines at larger supermarkets accept marked drink containers and pay 50 Ft per eligible bottle or can. Find a machine at grocery stores with 400 m²+ sales floors; smaller shops may join voluntarily.
What to do
- Rinse containers, check the DRS label, and feed them into the reverse-vending machine during your weekly shop
- Pool neighbours' bags through a stairwell brigade (see linked idea) instead of making separate trips
- Read MOHU: A koncesszió for how the concession funds new return infrastructure
When & where
- Ongoing, participating supermarkets across Budapest (approximate pin: 47.4979, 19.0402; use in-store machines at major grocery chains)
- Machines operate during shop opening hours
