I was just watching the new video over at DH Love Life.
It is on a company called Terracycle. They are based in Trenton, NJ and they make different products completely out of waste (including all their packaging which is made from old bottles). The DH video is all about their fertilizer that they make from Worm Poop! Apparently, it works great! How clever. They also make all naturally derived household cleaners, trash bins made from crushed computers, and bags from old wrappers.
What is super neat is as they think of new products to make, they see what waste can be used to create them and then they show on their site what they need and coordinate how to get it. It is direct recycling, where you know it is going to be reused. They send you the postage and once you have collected a substantial amount of containers, you ship them to Terrcycle, who reuses them. It eliminates the middle man and they make a donation to a school or charity of your choice for each item you send. What a great business idea.
If you have the means to collect a large amount of the packaging they need, think about signing up!
Have a great day!
