Recycle with Tassimo and L'OR through the Hub and Spoke Model

TerraCycle has partnered with Tassimo and L'OR to create a free recycling programme for Tassimo T DISCs, outer packaging, L'OR capsules, Kenco Eco Refill packs and coffee jar lids.

Thanks to the help of thousands of collectors, we have been able to recycle more than 25 million pieces of Tassimo waste and L'OR capsules and raise more than £308,000 for schools, charities and Non-Profits in the UK. The numbers you see above relate to the Hub and Spoke model only.

View all participating public Hub and Spoke locations on the interactive map above.

A public Hub and Spoke location is a communal collection point where the public can take their TerraCycle waste for recycling. Each public Hub and Spoke location is listed on the interactive map above. When you drop off your waste at a public Hub and Spoke location, the TerraCycle points earned for the waste are transferred to the account of the public Hub and Spoke location administrator in question, who can then donate the points to the charity of their choice.

Before you go to a public Hub and Spoke location with your waste, we advise you check the details (full address, opening hours and location of collection box at the site) and when a telephone number is listed it’s worth calling just to ensure the collection point is still active.

This map is updated when new public Hub and Spoke locations are added or removed, so we recommend you consult it in advance of each time you plan to drop off your waste.
