I'd like to set up a public drop-off point but the program is full, what can I do?

Did you know that most packages and products are not recyclable curbside because it costs more to collect and recycle them than the value of the recycled outputs? 

The free recycling programs we run have no cost to you because the manufacturer funds the cost of collecting and processing the waste minus the value of the resulting recycled materials. This means we do have limited spaces available within programs.

Brands are not obligated to offer recycling or other end-of-life solutions for their products and packages. Your feedback to our brand partners is essential, and letting them know that recycling solutions for the products you buy are important to you will go a long way to launching and scaling these recycling solutions.

Alternatively, you may be interested in purchasing one of our Zero Waste Boxes™. This complete and convenient solution includes the storage, shipping, and recycling of a particular type of waste that isn’t currently recycled through curbside recycling.
