Yes, this free recycling program is brand-specific, which means you can only recycle the packaging of this particular brand.

Brita has sponsored this free recycling program, so there is no direct cost to you.

We encourage you to ship when your box is full of Brita products and packaging to minimize the transportation carbon footprint for this program. UPS will not accept dripping packages, so please make sure your items are dry.

No, you do not need to clean the packaging before dropping it off, but please remove as much of the remaining product as possible before shipping.

By drinking filtered water, we can reduce the amount of plastic bottles that ends up in landfills and oceans. In fact, every Brita^® filter used means 300 standard 16.9 oz plastic bottles saved. And if that's not enough, Brita® has teamed up with TerraCycle to recycle their already eco-friendly products and packaging.
