Zero Waste Box Programme

TerraCycle’s Zero Waste Box is a complete and convenient solution to store, ship, and recycle various types of waste that are not currently recycled through local councils or traditional recycling facilities.

This initiative allows you to order Zero Waste Boxes directly to your site to recycle your empty plastic malt sacks (polypropylene and polyethylene). Once you have your box, you can collect your empty malt sacks at your own pace, filling the box as you go, and sending it off for recycling once it’s full. The whole process is streamlined and easy to do, while only taking up a small space in your brewery or distillery. The Zero Waste Boxes provide a great solution to those who have sustainability at the forefront of their agendas, allowing you to recycle empty malt sacks easily and quickly.

Here are some of the many benefits of using TerraCycle Zero Waste Box:

• All-inclusive cost – including shipping, handling, storage and recycling.
• Holds 80-100 of our 25kg malt sacks (box size is 38 x 38 x 97cm).
• Easily collect your empty malt sacks into the box for recycling and once your box is full, contact UPS to arrange its prepaid collection.
• Full traceability of waste volumes collected and recycled.
• Encourages a responsible and sustainable supply chain.
• All empty plastic malt sacks can be recycled using these boxes (Polypropylene & Polyethylene).

*Please be aware that the Zero Waste Box Programme that we are running is currently only available in the UK.

How to receive your Waste Transfer Note

TerraCycle requires businesses that send their waste from commercial premises to sign an annual waste transfer note.

A waste transfer note is official documentation to track commercial waste, sent throughout the year, where it is coming from and where it is going to. It’s part of the Duty of Care legislation, which ensures waste is handled in a way that does not harm the environment of human health.

You just need to fill in the details of the site where you aggregate your waste, your contact details and SIC code. Please use the following EWC code 20 01 39 and note that the address you provide should not be that of your business’s headquarters but of the collection site.

Click here to access the form. Please complete it as soon as you purchase a Zero Waste Box™. You just need to fill out one waste transfer note per commercial premises, per year, for each type of commercial waste recycled through Zero Waste Box.

Once completed, it will be emailed to you and TerraCycle directly.
