What happens to my pods after I have returned them?
After you have returned your pods through any of our easy methods, they are sent to our specialist
recycling plants, where the coffee is removed from the aluminium. The aluminium is smelted and recycled
into new products, such as beverage cans. The coffee is used to create renewable energy and soil improver.
Our recycling bags are made from more than 80% recycled content and are also recycled.
Can I have multiple bags collected at once?
Yes, up to 3 bags can be selected per booking. If you have more than 3 bags to recycle, simply repeat the
process again.
If you use the Drop-Off Service, please ensure you have a QR code for each bag being handed over. You do not need to print them, they will be emailed to you.
