What we take
Clear plastic clamshells containers
From grocery stores to farmers' markets, it's hard to avoid these clear plastic clamshells - they’re everywhere! Made from PET, these plastic packages often can't be recycled because they get contaminated either with food or during the single stream the recycling process.
What we do with it
We work directly with PET recyclers who specialize in clamshell containers. By collecting directly from our members, we can avoid any contamination that may occur in a mixed recycling bin, and ensure that your clamshells get a new life.
Your clamshells and trays are washed, reprocessed, and turned into post-consumer resin to be used again in new plastics. This process leaves a minimal carbon footprint and helps create a circular world by turning recycled clamshells into other plastics over and over, instead of winding up in our landfills, or worse... in the oceans, lakes, and rivers!
