Back-to-School Shoppers Can Recycle Old Binders and Receive Discount for New Ones

Many binders are tossed into the garbage after each school year however TerraCycle is able to recycle the binders, thereby significantly reducing the amount of waste going into landfill. Consumers find recycling to be the most easily understood component of sustainability, and TerraCycle and Office Depot are working to help consumers participate in the movement for a more sustainable planet.

“We’re excited to partner with TerraCycle this back-to-school season as parents, teachers and students prepare for the school year with new supplies,” said Ron Lalla, executive vice president of merchandising for Office Depot, Inc. “The program provides a way to recycle binders in an environmentally conscious way while also offering a discount to shoppers who are looking for new ones.”

TerraCycle works with major manufacturers and retailers to recycle products and packaging that would normally be thrown away.
