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

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.

We encourage you to ship when your box is full of pouches to minimize the transportation carbon footprint for this program. Shipping carriers will not accept dripping packages, so please make sure your items are dry. Your box shouldn’t be heavier than 50 lbs or larger than 18x18x18".
