Walmart and P&G, in partnership with international recycling leader TerraCycle, are offering free in-store recycling collection for empty hair care, skincare & cosmetic packaging at 25 Walmart locations throughout communities in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Oklahoma and Arkansas.
 
The recycling program aims to help the planet and local communities by reducing waste and keeping otherwise non-recyclable plastic packaging out of landfills. Consumers are invited to bring empty hair care, skincare & cosmetic packaging to participating Walmart locations to be recycled, such as:

Cosmetics

  • Plastic and glass tubes, pots, pumps, sprays, and jars
  • Lipstick, lip balm, and lip gloss tubes, cases, and caps
  • Mascara tubes
  • Eyeliner pencils and cases
  • Eyeshadow and bronzer cases
  • Foundation packaging
  • Powder cases
  • Eyeshadow and concealer tubes and sticks

Hair Care

  • Shampoo and conditioner bottles, caps, and pumps
  • Hair gel and styling product tubes and pots
  • Non-aerosol hair spray bottles, triggers, and pumps

Skincare

  • Body lotion and body wash bottles and caps
  • Face cream and sunscreen tubes and pumps
  • Cleanser and serum packaging
  • Soap bottles and dispensers

 
Once collected, beauty and skincare product packaging is cleaned and separated by material type. The materials are recycled into raw formats that manufacturers use to make new products.
 
“Walmart and P&G are working together to strengthen recycling solutions and educate their communities about the importance of sustainability by offering convenient in-store drop-off points for haircare, skincare and cosmetic packaging,” said Tom Szaky, CEO and founder of TerraCycle. “The innovative collaboration offers consumers the opportunity to divert traditionally non-recyclable beauty waste from landfills in a convenient way.”
