Gillette Razor Free Recycling Program

Due to the hazardous nature of these items, it is required that all packages shipped through this program adhere to the following regulations:

• Waste must be packed in a strong and sturdy cardboard box. Please do not use bags, sachets, flimsy cardboard boxes or the packaging your razors were sold in.
• We do not accept any other type of blade or sharp through this program - razors and their packaging only. 

Accepted Waste Poster

No, you do not need to clean the packaging before dropping it off for recycling, but please ensure items are as dry as possible before shipping or dropping it off at a Community Collection Hub. Australia Post and Hubs will not accept dripping items, so please make sure your items are dry.

We encourage you to ship once you've collected a few months worth of razor rubbish to minimise the footprint of this program. Australia Post will not accept packages weighing over 20kg or dripping packages, so please make sure your items are dry.

Gillette and Venus sponsors this national recycling program making it free for you to participate.

You can recycle all brands of used razor blades and their packaging through the program, including:

• Blades and razors (refillable and disposable products, and replaceable-blade cartridge units)
• Rigid plastic packaging
• Flexible plastic packaging
   

This program does not accept:

• Any other type of loose blade or sharp
• Outer cardboard packaging can be recycled with your local council, so please don’t include this in your shipment to TerraCycle
