If you have previously purchased a Return & Recycle ticket then you can return your used pods right up to the end of 2019.

We can all be very proud of the achievements of the Return & Recycle programme. For over three years it has diverted your used capsules from landfill and into practical use.
The introduction of our new Compostable Capsule technology - that keeps your coffee fresh and performs just as well as the regular plastic capsules - means that the time to change is now.
We extend a hearty congratulations and thanks to all who have participated in the Return & Recycle programme. Well done!

Our unique coffee capsule recycling option is performed right here, in NZ. Designed to be a simple, practical system, it is just as easy as throwing your coffee pods in the bin – just a different bin. When you have finished with your Nespresso® compatible recyclable coffee capsules, simply place your pods in the courier bag provided and send everything back to us via Courier Post. We then get right on with the pod recycling process and helping you do a good thing for New Zealand.
The decision to recycle your pods is a matter of personal choice. That's why we offer it as an option on our Shop page. After your first purchase the option to recycle will pop up as a reminder when you check out.
It's simple! When you opt to Return and Recycle we ask you to pay a contribution towards a prepaid return courier ticket that we send to you with your order. That starts from as little as $5.50 for people in the Auckland metropolitan area.
We charge for the Return part of our recycle option to reflect the true cost of shipping. We'll definitely keep doing the Recycle bit as a free service because we believe that it is important for businesses to take responsibility for their packaging.
Our Nespresso compatible coffee capsule recycling service provides a legitimate recycling solution for Kiwis who are looking to minimise their environmental impact.
We process as much as possible of what we send to you for reuse or recycling.
We are trying to create a commercial product from the lightweight bricks that we manufacture. At the moment they are in a weather testing phase. We need to know the plastic composition that makes up our bricks for the results of the test to be valid. This is the reason why we can only recycle our capsules.

Getting started with recycling your capsules is as simple as selecting the Return and Recycle option when you check out.
