Are there any industrial processes where plastic containers get re-used? I know drink containers get returned where I live. But I doubt they get re-used.

In Germany you can get some soft drinks in reused thick plastic bottles.
Finland replaced those with the lighter ones that get crunched now... Then again it might have been sensible from microplastics perspective... Many of the recycled ones were pretty scuffed...
Think about containers you use at home to store leftover food.
