Not all recycling happens at the curb. ♻️ Most food plastic packaging, including treat pouches, are made from layers of plastic that help keep food fresh. These materials can't be separate and processed by standard recycling facilities.
Good News: Our treat pouches are eligible for Store Drop-Off recycling, which means they can be brought to participating retail locations (like many grocery stores) that accept flexible plastics.
Store drop-off plastics are collected in bulk and sent to specialized recycling facilities. There, they’re turned into useful materials like composite lumber, outdoor furniture, decking, and even new packaging, like trash bags or shipping envelopes.
Local to a Polkadog Bakery? Now through August, drop off your empty Polkadog treat pouches (make sure they're clean and dry!), and get $2 off your next purchase for every pouch you return. Our team will handle the rest! 🌎️🧡
