Recycling your used coffee pods at Costa is simple. First, ask a barista in any Costa store for a pod recycling bag. Each bag can hold up to 75 pods, whether plastic or aluminium. Once it’s full, simply seal the bag and drop it off at any store. Costa will then send the pods to be sorted and recycled, keeping them out of landfill and giving the materials a second life.
At H&M, you can drop off unwanted clothes and textiles to be recycled or repurposed. Not only does this help reduce waste and give fabrics a second life, but you’ll also earn points on your H&M membership as a reward for recycling!
