TerraCycle Zero Waste Boxes

Don't know what to do with old makeup containers and used plastic toothbrushes? Come by The Unwaste Shop and drop them in one of our TerraCycle Zero Waste Boxes to make sure they get disposed of responsibly!

We have two zero waste boxes in store: Beauty Care and Packaging Waste and Oral Care Waste.

You can pop in and drop off your hard-to-recycle items like lotion pumps, plastic makeup containers, toothpaste tubes, floss containers and more! TerraCycle will then recycle everything and turn them into new things!
