Recycling Coffee Cups, Lids & Straws

Save your plastic lined paper cups (most take away disposable coffee cups) from landfill by using our new 7-Eleven cup towers for used cup, lid and straw disposal.

The cup towers are black and tall, and are located on both campuses:

  • At the recycling hub near the main office.
  • Out the front of the office at Wingrove campus (pictured above). 

 

The 7-Eleven Cup Rescue program has saved over 33,000,000 cups from landfill so far. To find out more about Simply Cups upcycling and what products are being manufactured from recycling coffee cups, check out the video below (1min, 45 sec).
