PHILADELPHIA, PA - Most Americans wouldn’t dream of getting out of bed without a cup of joe but did you know that global coffee production generates as much as 23 million tons (equivalent to 65 Empire State Buildings) of waste per year?

Dunkin' at home Announces National Recycling Program in Partnership with TerraCycle

In response, today Dunkin’, America’s favorite coffee and baked goods chain, announced the launch of a free, national recycling program for select flexible coffee bags, in partnership with international recycling leader TerraCycle®.

The newly announced recycling program will give coffee lovers across the country the opportunity to easily send in Dunkin' flexible coffee bags to be properly disposed of and recycled. For every shipment sent to TerraCycle through the recycling program, collectors earn points that can be donated to a non-profit, school, or charitable organization of their choice.
