Between October 28 and December 31, 2024, TerraCycle employees, and friends and family of TerraCycle employees, can ship and recycle in select programs to win big! Employees have the chance to win a one-night stay and dinner at one of CEO Tom Szaky’s Airbnb locations, or gift cards up to $150 USD in value.
No shipment is too small - ship in the hard-to-recycle waste you have at home to help your TerraCycle employee win.
You can choose to receive a physical label if you don’t have access to a printer.
If you want more than one label from the same program or multiple programs, please reach out to label.support@terracycle.com.
If you are unable to print your shipping labels, please email label.support@terracycle.com so we can mail them to you (or your TerraCycle friend or family member can pick up the labels from our Customer Care team).
Share this QR code so friends and family can easily visit the contest page.
The employee with the most shipments under their name will win the grand prize of a one night stay and local dinner (up to $75 value) at TerraCycle CEO Tom Szaky’s Airbnb of their choice (in Princeton or Lambertville, NJ) OR a $150 USD gift card!
The second place winner will receive a $100 USD gift card!
But that’s not all—every employee whose name was attached to a shipment will be entered for a chance to win a $50 USD gift card!
