What happens to the waste?

The collected waste is mechanically and/or manually separated into metals, organics and plastics. Metals are melted so they may be recycled. The organics (such as the coffee grounds) are composted. The plastics undergo extrusion and pelletization to be molded into new recycled plastic products.

ACCEPTED WASTE

All varieties of used coffee or tea discs from any capsule-specific coffee or tea machine including, fresh packs, K-Cups and t-discs.

PLEASE DO NOT...
include used tea or coffee filters, coffee grounds, electronics (coffee makers) or anything else other coffee or tea accessory. Please note that we will not accept organics, broken glass, bio-medical waste, soiled diapers, expired medication, pesticides, paint, pressurized canisters, and medical sharps in any of our boxes. Please send traditional recyclables through your municipal system.
