Why stick to vending machine? sometimes (e.g. common typology in German shops) you can add both, plastic bottles for recycling and reusable bottles in plastic or glass (but usually not bottles in glass for recycling) into the same "machine" (which will often just be a conveyor belt with a scanner and a receipt printer, while sorting takes place manually behind the curtain). Other machines are only for plastic bottles for recycling and they will crush the bottles to reduce space requirements. I have never seen a machine that accepts glass bottles for recycling (but maybe they exist somewhere), usually there are containers for the collection of glass or the bottles will be reused. Technically, the term "reverse vending" only applies to machines where you get something for the items you have put in (is typical for reusable containers but may often not be true in the case of containers destined for recycling), maybe if we want to lump them together we should prefer a more generic tag for it?
