Who Is Terracycle?

TerraCycle is a recycling company that focuses on recycling hard- to- recycle waste, like coffee capsules and toothbrushes. 

They offer a range of free programs that are funded by brands and retailers like Nescafe, Colgate and Ambi Pur. 

 As a community recycling point, Warnbro Centre collects waste in our Recycle Station at the top of the travelator. Once we have collected enough, we download free shipping labels and send TerraCycle your waste to be recycled.

We accept the items below, but read on for more recycling options available from other retailers in the Centre.

Please note, we no longer accept contact lens waste or bread bag closures. These programs are now closed.
