Cathedral City cheese wrappers

Excellent experience - returned several years worth of CC cheese wrappers in one medium sized bag. Follow up confirming receipt and recycling was welcome. Highly recommended. We estimated that we payed around 5p per block of cheese to guarantee recycling as against likely landfill.

A very useful service

I am so pleased to find a way to recyle the plastic vials that medicated and some soothing preservative free eye drops come in. We get through 5 or 6 a day in this house! My only slight concern is the cost, but it will take us months to fill in even the small bag so it is worth it.

Collection of empty blister packs - a perfect solution!

I've given one of your small bags to my son to use for his blister packs on his boat. I've also suggested that he shows it to his friends on the boat mooring for the marina. They could have a community collection for recycling items in the club house.

That’s fantastic Our Zero Waste Bags in action! A community recycling spot at the marina sounds like a perfect plan.

Complete satisfaction

I’m so glad I discovered these bags. I’m filling my second and have ordered one for my granddaughter. Easy to order and the instructions are clear and easy on how to return the filled bag

Tablet packaging

Love that this item can be recycled properly.

A relief to receive

A really good idea, we have far more blister packs to get rid of than we realised, this bag helps us do it and is reasonably priced, well worth it

Highly effective recycling option!

I came across Terracycle whilst trying to find a way, or method, to recycle items that were proving challenging to dispose of environmentally and sustainability.

I'm really impressed with the Terracycle service and approach; the recycling bag (to place my items into) arrived swiftly and the whole process has been incredibly easy and straight forward; plus I'm reassured knowing that items such as water filters etc. aren't going into landfill, but finding a new life as new plastic products!

Thanks for a great service

Thank you so much for your lovely review We’re so happy to hear your Zero Waste Bag made recycling easy and stress-free! It’s amazing knowing that items like water filters are finding a new life instead of going to landfill. Your support truly helps us make a difference!

Medium bag

This is a great idea!
The medium bag will last us a few months, using it for our medication blister packs.
Very happy so far!

Waste bag for medicine packs

Just fantastic

Very straightforward to use

Paying to recycle your waste feels a bit extra virtuous but it does mean you can be pretty sure it is actually going to be recycled properly rather than end up in landfill or in a contaminated waste stream. The bag arrived quickly and it was very straightforward to fill it up and send it off. Not cheap but definitely satisfying.

Great bag!

I ordered a large bag and it has a fantastic large capacity, really quick delivery. Haven’t had to return it yet but it appears to be easy to send back, just glad the medicine blister packs can be recycled through this scheme.

Great way to recycle tablet strips

I get through a fair few tablet strips each week with my various medications and hated having to send them to landfill. Non of the pharmacies near us have a collection box (which is ridiculous, they all should have recycling facilities) I can fit about 3 months worth in a large bag - definitely not cheap but worth it when no other options are available

Large waste bag

Verty easy to use. Only point of difficulty was in relation to the maximum size requirements, which didn't seem to bear any real relation to the size of the bag in question.

Thank you for your review! We’re so pleased to hear you found the Zero Waste Bag easy to use 🙌

Regarding the maximum size requirements, we totally understand how they might feel a little unclear at first. The dimensions listed do match the bag’s capacity, but we’ll look at how we present that information to make it easier to visualise.

Thanks again for recycling with us and helping to reduce waste ♻️

Recycling

The bags came promptly The Bags are a good size and in progress now This time km doing hair nets and media The bags hold a lot which is good too Very gsppy

Easy recycling!

I'm so happy that I've discovered Terracycle's Zero Waste Bags. They hold a surprising amount, and along with composting and judicious buying habits we have reduced the waste going to landfill from our household to virtually nothing. Thank you Terracycle!

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.

Excellent way to recycle ♻️

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.

Introductory Bundle

Easy to order + delivery very swift.Good to have various sizes for different items.

Neat and easy

Happy to receive my Zero Waste bags, they are slowly filling up, and it’s good to know that we can do something so easy to lessen waste to landfill . Thanks!

Great starter pack

Love the introductory pack of one large and one small bag. We have been saving up our blister packs for some time and still haven't filled the large.
Bag measurements would be useful in deciding which ones to buy.

Easy to use

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

Excellent idea

Brilliant idea - shrunk our general waste bin even more!

Helps me feel like I'm making a good change

The bundle has a variety of sizes - the big bag can contain a lot of items, so I'm still filling it up. Overall, a great product and helps the environment. I really appreciate that this is available.

I really love these bags as I have been able to recycle mine and husbands and another family members blister packs as I would normally just throw in household bin ,also as I save them until I have a large amount ,I will only need to buy a big bag every couple of months so I am then saving money and the environment.so thank u for this product.

Small bag bundle

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

Great service

Here in Wales, we have very good recycling waste segregation, but Terracycle enhance this for trickier items such as medicine blister packs. Would recommend.

'Tricky to recycle' items sorted!

Fantastic to have a convenient way to recycle all the tricky-to-recycle items that I've been stuck with for so long; clutter cleared without the guilt. I ordered 3 small bags to start with but realised I needed a larger size for all the blister packs I had saved (hard to find Superdrug near me) so had to go back and order more - but then used the small bags anyway for different items as they need to be separated into different types.

Great bags!

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 :)

Very efficient.

We received the bags promptly despite it being over Easter. It was very easy to send the bags back. Would highly recommend.

Medicine blister packets

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.

Convenient way to help the planet

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.

Love it ♥️

Love being able to send more recycling off, that would normally go in the bin.
Will be sending off my 3rd bag soon. And then will re order 2 more bags. Will be keeping this up

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*
