How does the Nespresso recycling program work in the USA?

Nespresso offers multiple ways to recycle used aluminum capsules and recover coffee grounds. Options include boutique drop-offs, mail-back bags, and select municipal programs.

Key Points

• Drop-off locations: Return used capsules to Nespresso boutiques and participating retail partners at designated collection points.
• Mail-back bags: Request pre-paid recycling bags via Nespresso customer service or website and return filled bags by mail for processing.
• Curbside & municipal: Some local recycling programs accept separated aluminum and compostable grounds—check local guidelines.
• Preparation: Collect used capsules in a sealed bag; rinsing is optional. Store until you can return them via a chosen method.

Next steps: Locate the nearest drop-off or request a mail-back bag through Nespresso Club. Recycling helps recover aluminum and compost coffee grounds responsibly.
