Overview

TerraCycle is Eliminating the Idea of Waste® by developing solutions to recycle the unrecyclable—items that aren’t typically curbside recyclable like cosmetics, candy wrappers, chewing gum, and even cigarette butts. They work with environmentally-conscious startups and some of the world’s biggest brands to recycle their products into raw material, which is then sold to manufacturing companies. Those manufacturers then use the materials to make new products like outdoor furniture and decking, plastic shipping pallets, tubes for construction applications, playground surface covers, and more. They’ve even recycled ocean plastic into shampoo bottles and toothpaste tubes into playgrounds! They’re continuously pioneering new and innovative recycling, reuse, and recycled content solutions for ytheir trash. Join us in Eliminating the Idea of Waste® by visiting terracycle.com.

What does a recycler do?

A recycler takes certain used materials and prepares them to be processed and used again. This can include common items like paper, cardboard, plastic, or metal, along with other materials depending on the recycler.

Why might one recycler take something another one will not?

Recycling services can vary based on equipment, local rules, processing outlets, and the condition of the material. That is one reason the same item may be accepted in one place but turned away somewhere else.
