Students can win prizes

Arizona State University is the newest campus participating in the Gillette University Razor Recycling Sweepstakes in partnership with international recycling leader, TerraCycle. This program gives students a unique opportunity to recycle old and used disposable razors, replaceable-blade cartridge units and their associated packaging for the chance to win multiple prizes. Participation in the program is simple: register with your .edu email at www.terracycle.com/en-US/pages/gillette-college and enter for your chance to win two tickets to any NFL game at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts, a Gillette Heated Razor or a year supply of Gillette or Venus razors. At the bottom of the registration page, find the link to a map of participating public drop off locations where you can dispose of your old, used razors. Once collected, the razors and their associated plastic packaging are cleaned and sorted by material composition to be later broken down and remolded into new recycled products. “Since our founding, TerraCycle has made it our mission to ‘Eliminate the Idea of Waste’ and provide solutions for difficult to recycle items that are not traditionally recyclable curbside,” said Tom Szaky, founder and CEO of TerraCycle. “Through our partnership with Gillette, we are working to inspire Arizona State University students to rethink what is waste, as well as help foster awareness that solutions do exist for items that may seem otherwise unrecyclable.”   To learn more about the Gillette Razor Recycling Program, become a public drop-off location or to search for their nearest participating location, visit www.terracycle.com/en-US/brigades/gillette.
