The Recycling Project allows us to recycle these pouches and prevent them from ending up in landfills.
And not only are you helping the environment, but the pouches you recycle with us have the potential to earn funding for our school or organization.
Accepted Items: All brands of squeezable snack plastic pouches and caps, All Entenmann’s Little Bites® pouches and Minis, Takis® snacks packaging.
