Click here to learn how to start a public drop-off point.

It’s quite simple to set up and manage a drop-off point, and you can recruit a group of friends to help!

Set Up: 

• Choose a location and receive permission if needed.

• Update a new or existing TerraCycle account profile with details about your drop-off location.

• Request to join the programs you would like to participate in.

• Once you’ve been approved for the programs you requested, set up your drop-off location. 

Manage: 

• Oversee the location (check it is being used properly, that waste is being shipped when collection boxes are filled). 

• When boxes are filled, seal them, download and affix the prepaid labels, and drop off the boxes at a UPS location.

• Continue to join programs of your choosing.

Promote: Spread awareness about your location (as you see fit) to encourage participation.

Allocate: As you accumulate TerraCycle recycling rewards, choose which charities will receive donations from your points.

There are no direct costs to you for running a public drop-off point. Many collectors spend nothing other than their time.

Public spaces that have good traffic flow and are easily accessible are excellent drop-off points. Stores, community centers, places of worship, and libraries are great options. For the Gillette Recycling Program, schools are not eligible to be public drop-off locations.

You choose which TerraCycle free recycling programs your drop-off point will participate in. Collectors can drop off only the waste accepted in those TerraCycle programs.
