The Cheese Packaging Recycling Programme

There are 2 different ways to participate in this programme:

1) Drop off all brands of flexible plastic cheese packaging and nets, as well as labels from Cathedral City Minis packs of 6 at your nearest public drop-off location

Find your nearest drop-off location on the interactive map above and drop off your waste.

2) Set up a public drop-off location

If there are no public drop-off locations near you, you can apply to set up your own. We will be carefully reviewing applications to ensure there is good coverage of accessible public drop-off locations across the UK. As part of this process, public drop-off locations in highly populated areas will be prioritised. But don’t worry, we are also including rural areas in the programme.

Follow the steps below to apply to set up a public drop-off location:

1. Create a TerraCycle® account
2. Find a public place to host your collection (with the prior consent of the person in charge of the place)
3. Fill out this form to request to join the programme as a public drop-off location administrator

Once you are a member of the programme (by setting up a public drop-off location) and when you are ready to send a parcel, please follow these steps:

1. Download a free UPS label from your account
2. Print your label out
3. Attach your label to your parcel. Please make sure you use a sturdy cardboard box which is no larger than 60x60x50cm in size. 
4. ​Simply book a free pick-up via UPS by calling 03457 877 877 or book online via this link. Alternatively, you can also drop off your parcel at your closest UPS drop-off point, which you can find here.
