How does it work?
Please choose the size box you would like to purchase. When you receive your box, fill it with the appropriate waste streams.

What happens when TerraCycle receives your Zero Waste Box?
How it is recycled?
Everything collected through the Zero Waste Box system is sorted and processed into raw materials. That can then be reused instead of being sent to landfill.
How are the different types of material recycled?
PLASTICS
Plastics are separated by number, melted down, and turned into pellets that can be moulded and extruded to produce new products.
METALS
Metals are separated by type and smelted into ingots for reuse.
GLASS
Glass is cleaned and sorted by colour for processing. It is then crushed and melted to be used in new glass products.
ORGANICS
Organics are composted or used in industrial and commercial fertilisers.
FIBERS
Fibers will be hydropulped to separate out wax or plastic coatings. The separated fiber will be recycled into new paper products, or composted if recycling is not possible. Any resulting plastics will be recycled into plastic polymers.
FABRICS
Textiles are sorted by type and are recycled, upcycled, or reused as appropriate. Textiles of mixed fibers are converted to energy. Natural fiber textiles (cotton) are turned into a "shoddy" or insulation. Synthetic fiber textiles (polyester) are pelletized and made into new plastic products.
ELECTRONICS
Electronics collected for recycling, also known as e-waste, are mechanically and manually separated into metals and plastics. Salvageable materials are refurbished and reused. All data is wiped, but we advise restoring your device to factory settings before sending it in.
CIGARETTES
Cigarettes are shredded and separated into plastics, papers, and organics.
