In the 21st century, the world and the humankind are at a kind of turning point. The constant economic growth causes ever-growing generation of waste, while the humankind has been ignoring the waste problem for a long time. The piled waste, the one that is produced and that will be produced in the future, represents the source of secondary materials in the politics of circular economy that will, if used, reduce the demand for already used-up primary source of materials. This paper attempts to explain the importance of waste disposal, more precisely the beverage packaging waste through the deposit return system. The deposit return system has been recognized as a tool by which the user will dispose the used-up beverage packaging. Through deposit return, the end-user is encouraged to dispose the beverage packaging waste by returning it to the salesman and, by doing that, recovers the money he overpaid for the product. The collector takes the packaging waste from the salesman and delivers it to the center for management of packaging waste, and, ultimately ends up at the processor who will use it again. The legislative and statistical reviews of past years have been carried out and the objective goals in deposit return system have been set, and accordingly, a techno-economic analysis has been made. The future objective of the Republic of Croatia has also been presented together with the advantages of such system. Finally, the conclusion and the advantages and disadvantages of deposit return system have been expressed.
