What do I do with it?
Recycle at home or at a recycling centre.
- if you can open and rinse the coffee grounds from non-black plastic and aluminium coffee pods, you can put them in your red recycling bag at home
- if you can't empty them, you can take them to one of the Household Waste and Recycling Centres that has a collection point:
- Truro
- Falmouth
- St Erth
- St Austell
- Launceston
- don't live near one of these HWRCs? Podback, the not-for profit recycling service, work with many supermarkets to offer in store coffee pod recycling
- Podback has a useful locator tool that allows you to enter your postcode and pod type to find recycling options nearby.
