Are candy wrappers recyclable?

TerraCycle Logo“Everything is technically recyclable, but most products and packaging, including candy and snack wrappers, are not accepted by public recycling programs. This is because in the current recycling system, most facilities cannot handle them. Thus, the wrappers are sent to landfill, where they can take years to break down.” Lauren Taylor | Global Vice President, Creative & Communications, TerraCycle

5 Ways to Recycle Your Makeup

Got a shelf in your shower filled with shampoo? Garnier and TerraCycle® partnered for a recycling program that will take your personal care and beauty products. You have to sign up online in order to participate, but the program is free to use. Once you sign up, deposit your old hair care, skin care, and cosmetic items into any box you have. Once the box is filled and mailed back, your leftover makeup and beauty products will be recycled and remade into other products. According to Garnier, recycled beauty products are used to make elements for community parks, playgrounds and gardens in Nebraska, Louisiana, Michigan, Ohio and New York.
