I’m really glad to have the option to recycle most items through Zero waste bag. I know you’re trying hard to keep the prices as reasonable as possible. It just comes down to how much people will want to recycle and be responsible about around it.
Easy to use, but expensive
Hi there, Thank you so much for your feedback! 😊

By the way, did you know we also offer free recycling programmes for certain waste streams?

We used the Zero Waste Bag to recycle blister packs; it was a very easy process and it is good to know that the blister packs are being recycled and used in a sustainable way.
Excellent service
Was worried a small bag might not be enough for my clearout but was pleasantly surprised by how many old pens fit in there! Will defo be using for other areas of the house

Sturdy, roomy and does what it says it does. Seems quite pricey initially and probably not affordable for a lot of people but the price is probably justifiable. This is my first one and I’m using it for blister medicine packs which I’ve always hated throwing in the waste bin as we have many.
Great product, just a shame this is the only way to recycle some items
Thank you so much for your feedback, we’re really glad you love the product 💜
Some items don’t yet have local recycling solutions. By the way, we also have other recycling solutions, including free recycling programmes for certain waste streams.

My bag arrived quickly after ordering and is ideal for recycling all my medication and vitamin blister packs. So much better than adding them to landfill.

Very good even better when you give us a big discount. I collect from many clubs in my area as you can see from the bags I buy and send to you. Maggie
It was easy to order and arrived quickly, I think I will get a smaller size next time as I don't seem to use as many pill packets as I thought, I have had this bag months and it's nowhere near full.
Great bag and arrived fast. Its huge. Going to take me ages to fill so good value for money
Since Superdrug and Boots became difficult to recycle pill blister packs at (locally certainly) I have been trying to find an affordable alternative.
TerraCycle only seemed to offer very expensive (to me at least - a large box costing me more than a week’s pension!).
But when they had a special offer on waste bags recently I saw they were actually listing pill blister packs as one of the waste items you could use in them.
So I ordered a pack of three large bags and decanted the large bag of pill blister packs that I had accumulated over the last year or so into it.
I was pleased that it not only accommodated them but also those in my smaller collecting box (kept on the side in my kitchen next to my bins for council collected recycling and rubbish.
Next came the problem of returning them. I tried several places where I was told by the App I could take them but did eventually find a set of InPost Lockers at a Coop store in a town 15 miles away.
Luckily there was a lady there who knew how to use it as there were no instructions…
We found a large locker and the bag disappeared into it.
I’ve then waited a couple of weeks but have now received an acknowledgement from TerraCycle that it has been received and so I hope everything was OK!
That bag cost me £37 so I think as it swallowed about a year’s collection I can afford that! And I still have two bags to fill!
I’m so grateful not to have to put all these packs into our waste cycle!
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad our bags could make recycling your pill blister packs easier and help keep them out of the waste cycle. We really appreciate your support!
Strong, easy to find a post point nearby, used for pet food pouches would recommend

Large bag filling up fast with plastic waste, I am amazed at how much has accumulated in a month. The smaller bag which I am using to collect blister packs will take sometime to fill and be ready to send off.
Very easy and simple process. Very pleased!
Smallest bag:
Its been great so far for empty medicine blister packs as I’ve got some many medications. Glad it takes them out of general waste.
Ive still to consider what best to use the bigger bag for.
I haven’t looked into where i put this bag once its filled.
Busily filling my large bag with all the various bits of plastic packaging that previously went in the general bin, while the small bag is upstairs for dental stuff. Between what my local council will take, my compost bin and these bags, my general waste is much, much smaller than before.
Easy to order + delivery very swift.Good to have various sizes for different items.

Reliable way to help me improve my recycling of dofferent waste streams
The small bag has come in handy for pill/tablet foils and is getting filled up.
The big has been designated for soft plastic wrappings etc. and is filling up.
The medium one will be used for 'storage media' and will be filled with cassettes and CDs once I've sorted them out. All bags very useful!
Simple to order. I sorted three separate streams for the bag sizes quite easily and the returns process worked smoothly. The solution I've been looking for for hard to recycle products.
Easy to order, pack up and send. Just wish recycling all these odd bits wasn’t so difficult in the first place. Having to pay to recycle these things is a shame and I hope that improves one day, but for now it puts my mind more at ease that least I am recycling these things.
Great way of stopping everything going to landfill

This is a great way to recycle small items which aren't accepted by the normal recycling schemes. I've been worried for some time at the quantity of blister and contact lens packs I have been throwing away. It's quite expensive but saves a lot of time and inconvenience.
I love using Terracycle, it’s so good to be able to recycle as much as I can and to know that others are benefiting from it.
I am an individual who chooses a conscious living style to help the planet.
My motto is to reduce, recycle and reuse. ♻️
I have always found it very difficult to throw things away knowing where it was destined to go and knowing there is no other way to recycle certain waste until I found Terracycle.
I have been using different sized bags for a number of years now. I find the process very easy, simple and fulfilling.
Terracycle have made recycling so easy for many different things that cannot be recycled elsewhere which otherwise would eventually end up in landfill.
Thank you to everyone at Terracycle.
I am very grateful for the concept and all the wonderful hard efforts put into recycling the waste!
We are all responsible for our beautiful planet we live in. Every little bit can make a “Big” difference.
I highly recommend!
I was pleasantly surprised by the ample size of the small bags. Although it’s a considered purchase, I’m happy to pay to prevent the items going to landfill.
Good idea shame its so pricey

A very good initiative and makes me feel positive about recycling
Thank you so much for your kind words!
We’re really glad to hear our initiative helps you feel positive about recycling, that means a lot to us. Thanks for doing your part!
Really convenient to have a collection of these bags to use for recycling awkward items. I am using mine for stationery, cosmetics and oral care which can be tricky to recycle locally.
I've been using these bags for a while now, OK they're not cheap but you can cram loads in! Delivery is really quick and the returns process is very easy to navigate. I love that the things I'm collecting and sending back are not going into landfill but are being dealt with properly - and for that I'm willing to pay.
Thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate you taking your recycling into your own hands. We cant wait to recycle all your rubbish :)
We received the bags promptly despite it being over Easter. It was very easy to send the bags back. Would highly recommend.
Thank you for your review! We can't wait to recycle your rubbish :)

First purchase on behalf of a local charity who collect blister packs - we managed to get so much in these bags. Good value if buying in a bundle if 3. Recommended!
Thank you so much for your review! We’re glad the bags worked well for your charity, and that the bundle option was great value
I started this some time ago. I am really enjoying making a contribution to the recycling process
I've used this service multiple times to recycle material and clothes are not wanted by others. Also old toiletries and sun creams. Need to bear in mind that the price includes delivery and collection which is incredibly convenient. Will continue to use.
I have been collecting my medicine blister packets for years in the hope that I'd find a way to recycle them properly. I finally decided to purchase a large bag, and while it's not cheap, it has fitted about 6 years worth of packets into it and it feels great to finally get rid of them responsibly. The bags are really huge! I'll probably just order small bags from now to collect ongoing packets. It's worth it to know you're being responsible.
I actually ordered the 3-pack for a slight discount, and I'll use the others for soft plastic as this is also hard to recycle properly. I'll probably use 1-2 large bags a year for this. Would definitely recommend these bags for any waste that can't be recycled easily.
Thank you for sharing We’re so glad your Zero Waste Bag helped you recycle years of blister packets responsibly! Love that you’re keeping even soft plastics out of landfill.
It's great that TerraCycle offers a way to recycle items that aren't accepted through general recycling. The service is incredibly convenient to use. The QR code generation and bag drop-off are super easy, and we have a drop-off box just a 5-minute walk from our home.
I've seen some reviews mention it took them months to fill the large bags, but we seem to have a lot of packaging because it takes us much less time. The excellent service from TerraCycle makes it very easy to decrease the amount of waste that would otherwise go unrecycled.
We acknowledge that embracing eco-friendly habits and increasing your recycling efforts may seem like an investment. On average, users typically require only 4 small bags or 2 to 3 large bags annually for any specific waste stream, translating to a monthly cost of £7 to £10, depending on bag size and the type of rubbish recycled*
