A deposit-refund system (DRS), also known as deposit-return system, advance deposit fee or deposit-return scheme, are systems that add a surcharge on a product when purchased and a rebate when its packaging is returned. A well-known example is when container deposit legislation mandates that a refund is given when reusable packaging is returned.
