TerraCycle is on a mission to eliminate the idea of waste

Judy at the University of New England is recycling Nescafe Dulce Gusto Coffee Pods through TerraCycle, with a small proportion of the profits made going to a non-profit organisation or school of her choice. The following is taken from the Terracycle site:Natures-Organics-arrow-image-v1-auTerraCycle is on a mission to eliminate the idea of waste. We do this by creating waste collection programs (each one is called a “Brigade”) for previously non-recyclable, or difficult-to-recycle, waste. The collected waste is then converted into new products, ranging from recycled park benches to upcycled lunchboxes.

Select Your Waste

To get started, simply sign up and join a Brigade program for which you want to collect.

Collect and Send

Once you have joined a TerraCycle Brigade program, download our “Collect, Store, and Ship Guide” for helpful suggestions on how to become a successful waste collection station. When your waste is ready to be sent in, you can request a shipping label from your TerraCycle account. Once your waste is received and checked in to the TerraCycle facility, your collection location will be credited with any TerraCycle points that you may have earned for your waste. TerraCycle points can be redeemed for a payment of $0.01 per point to the non-profit organisation or school of your choice.

Solve and Benefit

TerraCycle’s team of scientists and designers have found ways to recycle and upcycle the waste we collect into cool new products. When we upcycle a piece of waste we leverage both the material it is made from and the original shape of the waste. When we recycle we transform the collected waste into new products through a variety of processes like injection moulding. Best of all, when you’re done with a TerraCycle product you can put it back in the original Brigade collection program and get credit for the waste a second time.
