Give your oral care products a second life with this recycling program designed to reduce waste and promote sustainability. Instead of tossing used oral care items in the trash, send them in to be properly processed and recycled. This program accepts any brand of used and empty oral care waste, including toothpaste tubes and caps, toothbrushes, outer packaging from toothbrushes and toothpaste tubes, and floss containers. However, for safety and processing reasons, electronic toothbrushes, lithium-ion or alkaline batteries, wooden toothbrushes, biodegradable materials, and hazardous materials are not accepted.
Recycling is the process of taking an otherwise-discarded item or material and cleaning, sorting, and breaking it down into its basic form (such as fibers or pellets). This material is then used to produce new items. Recycling keeps useful materials from being discarded in landfills, prevents resource extraction due to the creation of new materials, and provides a new life for used items. Recycling can utilize both pre-consumer waste (materials left over from production) or post-consumer materials (used clothing, empty water bottles, etc).
