All The Best is switching to recyclable plastic for our own products
All the Best Pet Care is working toward offering more sustainable products for dogs and cats by using recyclable packaging for our own products. At this point, most municipalities that our stores are in do not accept recyclable plastic bags. However, All The Best packages with the How2Recycle® logo can be returned to our stores or dropped off at other participating How2Recycle® locations to be recycled.
Why All The Best uses the How2Recycle system
The vast majority of plastic packaging is currently not recycled. This is partly due to the fact that currently, plastic recycling systems vary and are extremely confusing. The available information on current best practices for manufacturers can be contradictory and inconclusive. Fortunately, we are able to partner with the Pet Sustainability Coalition. They have the expertise to assess options and make optimal recommendations. While manufacturing options are in an ongoing state of change and improvement, the PCS currently recommends the How2Recycle program because of its simplicity. Consumers need only look for the logo to determine which packages are eligible to be returned to participating stores.
Currently, we are accepting these bags for How2Recycle store recycling:
- All The Best and Wisely bags that have our recycling logo on the front (shown at right) as well as the How2Recycle logo on the back. We currently moving every possible product to recyclable packaging every time we reorder bags.
- Stella & Chewy’s and Earth Animal bags that have the How2Recycle logo on the front
- All bags must be clean and dry, please!
Return your TerraCycle pet food packaging to All The Best
Look for the TerraCycle symbol on Nulo Challenger and Open Farm bags. Any clean, empty pet food bags with this logo can be returned to All The Best, and we’ll return them to be recycled.
