Not just No7
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.
We’re using Scan 2 Recycle technology, developed by our partners Metrisk and ReWorked, 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 500 Boots Advantage Card points – that’s worth £5! We’ll also track how many empties you bring back so you can see the positive impact you’re making to the planet.

To simplify:
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.
Thanks for sharing. Hopefully I’ll remember to keep my empty cosmetic pots. Points equal pounds.
How long do I have to redeem my reward?
The barcode you received by email is only valid until midnight on the day it was issued. Therefore, you must redeem it as soon as you have deposited the items, while you are in the store. Expired barcodes will not be reissued, and no retrospective rewards will be possible.
This is a great deal. Not that you should have to be bribed to recycle but still... I'm not complaining
Oh wow I love this it’s such a good idea to make people recycle. All about saving the planet!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful information with us we are buying more products from the boots so it can be helpful to gain the points for the recycling process
What a fantastic incentive. I know it should be standard practise to recycle, but I for one find it so frustrating when I use products that are not recyclable.
This is such a good solution, and love that we get rewarded for it!
Thanks Boots!
Thanks for sharing, this is such a good one so will check out if my local Boots is part of the participating stores.
Brilliant post and so easy tohelp the planet and making some really easy money at the time .Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing this is a really good idea, don't think there is a participating store near me though unfortunately
neemafwyorks It's early days so hopefully it will be rolled out around the country. I've noticed another post this morning for John Lewis - have a look at that one.
Can we do this as many time as we like, or is it a once per customer type of thing. This is a really great idea to get more people into doing this.

This implies that you can do it as many times as you are able.
Absolutely fantastic! I am so excited about this. Again, another offer that not only helps save the bank balance but also save the planet. Thank you so much for the share
Great! Thanks for sharing this. I always have empty pots laying around. I will definitely be doing this from now on!
Going to teSt them tomorrow with all sorts of containers to see what they accept: handwash containers, shower gel bottles, supplement containers.
Remember to sign up before pitching up with empty containers. You have to link it to your card through registration.
So I went to day and got my points. The process is a bit cumbersome.
- Register on the site.
- Upload photos of each item on the site before going into store.
- When in store: Then select the 5 items you loaded to bank on the website
- Scan the barcode that is on the collection box through the website.
- Check your emails Spam folder whatever, scan the voucher for 500 points in store with your advantage card. The voucher itself is only valid on the day it is issues. So you need to convert them to points same day. These points don't expire.
- Staff told me you can bank max of 5 bottles or redeem £5 in a single day.
Got my 1st 500 points which was redeemed for £5 boots voucher, exchanged it for my usual hairspray and HairMousse!!! There's no catch guys it really is that easy
