Gillette has partnered with TerraCycle to announce that all brands of disposable razors, replaceable-blade cartridge units and razor plastic packaging are recyclable—a move the partners are touting as a first for the United States. Consumers may recycle razors in three ways: Gillette Razor Local Recycling Solutions—Businesses, gyms, colleges, cities and community organiza­tions, are invited to sign up to become public-drop off points; after acceptance to the program, they will be sent razor recycling bins developed by TerraCycle and Gillette. Once full, the the bings can be sealed and returned to TerraCycle via UPS, and a new one will be sent back. The address listed on the account will be publicly available on a map of local recycling solutions on the Gillette Razor Recycling Program website. For each shipment weighing at least fifteen pounds, collectors earn points that can be used for charity gifts or converted to cash and donated to charities of their choice. The collected packaging will be recycled into new consumer products such as park benches, bike racks and recycling bins. Gillette On Demand Razor Recycling Program—Subscribers to the Gillette On Demand service can sign up on the program page, download a self-funded TerraCycle tracking label, repackage the used razors in the On Demand delivery box and send it to TerraCycle for recycling.

We are thrilled to bring this option to our consumers in the U.S. and are already working on plans to rollout to more countries very soon.”
