Can I recycle it?
Pringles tubes that have metal ends are not collected as part of your recycling collection. It's something we'll be introducing soon, though.
However, some Pringles tubes no longer have metal ends. Please check the recycling instructions on the tube. If the tube is 100% cardboard, you can recycle it in your orange bag.
Many of our Household Waste and Recycling Centres (HWRCs) across Cornwall have collection points for Pringles tubes and cartons.
Please wash and squash pringles tubes and remove the lid before putting them in the recycling bank at the HWRC. Pringles tube lids can be recycled in your red recycling bag for plastic and metal packaging.
All the food and drink cartons, including Pringles tubes, collected at our recycling banks go to ACE UK's dedicated recycling plant near Halifax.
Which container?
Pringles tubes go in your rubbish bin.
