7 Tips Recycle Nespesso Capsules
If you’re a nespresso coffee drinker you might end up with a pile of unused empty nespresso pods and not be sure about the best way to recycle them.
You’re not the only one with this problem; because nespresso recycle centres are not always conveniently located a lot of nespresso users don’t ever bother to recycle their pods.
It’s easier to justify not recycling them when you first get your machine because putting 1 tiny pod into the normal garbage just doesn’t seem enough to worry about.
The problem is 1 tiny capsule turns into hundreds. I can vouch for that because with no recycling outlet in my local area, I decided to put mine in a box.
In a very short time I ended up with a smelly, wet, mouldy box. This is my Nespresso waste from 3 months use.
I had no idea what to do with them when i first started drinking nespresso.
They didn’t fit with the guidelines for our local council recycle bin. With the aluminium shell and plastic inner lining our local recycle centres would not be able to process them. I was left collecting them in a box and left wondering how to recycle my nespresso pods.
In the end, I found some great ways to recycle nespresso pods.
