TASSIMO & WARWICK DISTRICT COUNCIL RECYCLING TRIAL
From Monday 26th March 2018 until Friday 21st September 2018, recycle your Tassimo T DISCs locally.
The six month trial period is now over.
Any remaining bags will still be collected when you put them out with your recycling box and bags, but Tassimo T-DISCs or outer packaging put out in any other container will not be accepted.
If you would like to continue to recycle your Tassimo T-DISCs once you have used up your recycling bags, you will be able to take them to the container at Cherry Orchard household waste recycling centre at Piper Lane, CV8 2SS, Kenilworth.
Tassimo, TerraCycle, SUEZ and Warwick District Council thank you again for your efforts.
Tassimo, TerraCycle®, Suez and Warwick District Council are launching a 6-month trial to recycle Tassimo T DISCs and outer packaging. With this trial it is possible to easily recycle your Tassimo pods via your household recycling and dedicated collection points at your Household Waste Recycling Centre. By running this trial we aim to identify new collection models that could potentially lead to a new mainstream coffee pod recycling solution. Please read the info below to know how to participate and start collecting your T DISCs and Tassimo Flow Wraps.
