Energy Disrupter

Zero Waste Subscription Box Australia ๐Ÿ“ฆ: We speak to many customers who are very focused on benefiting the environment and increasing their workplace recycling performance on a daily basis. The tougher things to recycle, as far we have experienced, have been things like Nespresso pods, plastic gloves etc.

Basically, the things that you would like to recycle but have been putting in general waste due to the lack of an alternative solution.

In todayโ€™s blog, we want to cover something a bit more complex than recycling cardboard boxes โ€“ which we have covered in lots and lots of blogs. Today, we talk about TerraCycle recycling boxes, which we can use for all the odds and ends. Basically, this includes the stuff you have left unused once you have optimised the simple recycling stuff such as cardboard recycling boxes, commingled bins for bottles and cans and organic waste.

Think of TerraCycle recycling boxes as the hard yards (i.e., the next steps that can take your recycling performance to the highest levels) and (in some cases) actually help hit zero waste to landfill.

As you will know, Waster offers low cost and flexible waste and recycling services to small and medium customers throughout Australia. Check out our services below:

From the TerraCycle website:

โ€œWhen an individual, company, or organisation chooses to go โ€œzero waste,โ€ that means they are living and working without generating any waste. All recyclable materials are recycled, all organic materials are composted, and items that cannot be recycled or composted are avoided and substituted with waste-free alternatives.

โ€œTerraCycleโ€™s Zero Waste Boxโ„ข platform allows you to recycle almost any type of waste, such as individual coffee capsules from your morning coffee or complex laboratory waste from your business.

โ€œA high-end, permanent collection unit to house your Zero Waste Box is the perfect solution for businesses, homes, retail locations, and anywhere else a Zero Waste Box is placed.
