Recycling Medicine Blister Packs
Aldi have launched a scheme to enable recycling of a limited amount of empty medicine blister packs:
- go here: https://www.aldi.co.uk/corporate/corporate-responsibility/greener/recycle and click through
- register for a Terracycle account
- join the programme
- request a label (up to 2 labels per month)
- print it off
- put up to 30 blister packs in an envelope (max size C4, a bit bigger than A4)
- affix the label
- pop the envelope in a post box
PERSONAL DEPOSITS ONLY AT SUPERDRUG PHARMACIES!! After 18 months and 1.5 tonnes of empty medicine blister packs delivered by St Albans and District Soroptimist Denise Powell and her Harpenden Lions husband John, Superdrug HQ have decided that their pharmacies will only now accept personal deposits. Therefore we can no longer accept collections.
If you do visit a Superdrug store with a pharmacy (e.g. Hemel Hempstead and Watford), please take a carrier bag full with you.
We are NO LONGER collecting in the St Albans and Harpenden area.
If you are out of the St Albans and Harpenden area then you can drop them off in participating Superdrug pharmacies across the UK. Please note not all Superdrug stores are pharmacies – it is only the pharmacy stores that are collecting.
