We are a local Warkworth business and if you are in the area recycling your coffee capsules is really easy.

When you have finished your coffee you have two convenient options;

1. Give them back to us when we next deliver to your door.
2. Drop them into Central Landscape Supplies at 25 Morrison Drive, click here for details. 

We've found a clever way to 100% recycle your capsules and reuse the packaging that it came in. By the time you've finished, the only thing left behind at your place will be the coffee that you drink.

This is how simple it is to recycle

1. Unwrap your Coffee Capsules 2U package and keep the brown paper packaging
2. Enjoy your coffee
3. Put the spent capsules in a plastic shopping bag
4. When you've finished your coffee, collect up the packaging and empty capsules
5. Either drop everything into the bin at Central Landscaping Supplies
6. Or just give them to Patrick next time he delivers your coffee

How it works

Everything that we send to you, and we mean everything, is processed for reuse or recycling. 

• Any paper or card packaging is recycled
• Plastic bags are put into the soft plastic recycling initiative.
• The coffee is mechanically separated from the plastic capsule and composted. The compost is used by Patrick and Louise on their Warkworth lifestyle block.
• The plastic and aluminium foil that make up the capsules is ground into an aggregate that is used in the making of lightweight bricks. This innovative process is at the cutting edge of plastics waste management.

Please note that we can only recycle our own capsules. If you give us capsules from other brands we will have no option other than to put them into the waste stream, i.e. landfill.

Tips

1. You could scrape out the coffee for your own compost and just drop off the empty capsule, foils and packaging.
