What is the Recycle at Boots scheme?
Together with No7, we’re doing our bit to help keep our planet beautiful. That’s why we’re trialling a recycling scheme where you can bring your empty beauty, health, wellness and dental products, from any brand, that can’t be recycled at home.
Why is Boots doing a recycling scheme?
We know lots of beauty, health, wellness and dental items can’t be recycled traditionally due to their size, what materials they’re made from and various other factors.
We want to play our part in looking after the planet by making it easier to recycle items that might be difficult to recycle elsewhere. And we want to reward you for playing your part and making recycling part of your regime too.
What's unique about the scheme?
We’re using Scan2Recycle technology, developed by our partners Metrisk and MyGroup, to create a unique solution that helps the environment and rewards customers at the same time. Win, win!
When you visit one of our participating stores and bring five empty products to one of the in-store recycle bins, we’ll give you 250 Boots Advantage Card points when you spend £10 or more – that’s worth £2.50 (see coupon T&Cs here – offer 32). We’ll also track how many empties you bring back so you can see the positive impact you’re making to the planet.
You can click and collect from one of 2,200 Boots stores for £1.50.
Standard delivery costs £3.50 or free when you spend £25 or more.
This is interesting. I will check whether my local Boots is taking part in this. Thank you for sharing.
I didn't know that beauty products couldn't be recycled via normal routes I put my shower gels , mouth wash etc in my normal recycling. I will see if my small local Boots offer this service or if just the larger stores.Thank you for sharing
I looked into this when it first come out but my local Boots don't participate unfortunately.
Great way for encourage people to recycling. I'm always into supporting that. Good idea Boots.
Darn it was in Boots today lol will try and remember for next time thank you for sharing!
So you have to spend £10 at the same time as recycling 5 old beauty products into the bins there ?
erinmurphy2 you have a couple of days to scan the voucher you get against a purchase. So you could recycle Monday and redeem it Wednesday - but I would forget!!
This is great. I have a whole boxful. Plus it means doing our bit for the planet. Thanks for sharing
Will check in my local boots to see if they do it. If not will save up and go to a larger one.
