Deposit: bottle return finder
Find can returns near you
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Deposit helps you find a statiegeld machine that takes what you are carrying.
Dutch deposit-return machines are not interchangeable. One takes plastic bottles and cans but not glass; the next takes crates. Walking to the wrong one costs a trip, and the shop's own sign rarely says which it is until you are standing in front of it.
WHAT IT DOES
• Shows deposit-return points near you, as a list ordered by distance or as a map
• Tells you what each one accepts — glass, cans, plastic bottles, crates
• Says when that is the source's own statement and when it is an assumption, so a guess never reads as a fact
• Finds places by address, postcode or city, and narrows the list to what is open now
• Keeps your favourites one tap away
• Scans a barcode to check whether a bottle or can carries a deposit
• Lets you report a machine that is full or broken, so the next person knows before they walk there
• Opens directions in your maps app
• Works offline from what it last downloaded, so a shop basement with no signal still answers
WHERE THE DATA COMES FROM
Locations come from OpenStreetMap, the open map of the world, and are used under the Open Database Licence. That means the data is public, correctable by anyone, and improves for everybody when it is fixed — including you. It also means it is incomplete in places: a machine that is missing from OpenStreetMap is missing here, and the app says so rather than pretending otherwise.
PRIVACY
No account. No advertising. Your exact position never leaves your phone: to find machines nearby, the app asks about a square of roughly one kilometre around you. If you report a problem or suggest a correction, that is kept on our server under a random token with no name attached, and you can delete it from the app. Crash reporting and analytics are off until you turn them on.
Deposit is an independent app. It is not affiliated with Statiegeld Nederland or Verpact, and it is not the official statiegeld app.
LOCATION ALERTS (OPTIONAL)
Follow a deposit-return point and get a notification when something changes. Alerts are a yearly auto-renewing subscription; everything else in the app is free. Payment is charged to your Apple ID, and the subscription renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage it in your Apple account settings.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
What's new:
• Filter chips now follow the area on the map and only offer what can be returned there. Your own choice still wins.
• Never scan? Turn off Show Scan tab in Settings.
• Deposit now covers Connecticut.
• In the US, store cards no longer say "Usually accepted": stores there must take back what they sell.
• The map keeps its pins in place when you rotate the device or tap a pin.
