TerraCycle Back-To-School Review

**Terracycle sent me products, at no cost to myself, for my 100% honest opinion on their products.
 

The first product I recieved from TerraCycle was the Starburst Rectangular Lunch Box.  This would be a great size for taking to school, or even to work!  It was sewn together really good and seems like it would hold up for an elementary kids abuse, or the rolling around in the car on the way home from work everyday.  :)   I also LOVED the bright colors of this one.

I couldn't find the Starburst Rectangular Lunch Box on their site, but found the Capri Sun Rectangular Lunch Box which is pretty much the same.  You can see the Capri Sun one by clicking here.

Here are some things that I pulled from the website about the Rectangular Lunch Box...
  • Dimensions: 6" T x 9" W x 4" D
  • This unusual material make for an unusual twist on the traditional insulated lunch box.

 
The other item that I recieved to review ws the Pencil Case.  This would work great for the kids in school that need to carry pens, pencils, and markers around with them.  Like the Lunch Box, the Pencil Case is sewn together very well.
 
The Pencil case cost 1.99 and can be bought from here.
 
 
Here are some facts that I found on the TerraCycle website...
  • TerraCycle is widely considered the world’s leader in the collection and reuse of non-recyclable, post-consumer waste.



I thought this one was pretty interesting!!

 2012 was another record year for TerraCycle.
It marked the 9th straight year of revenue growth as well as the launch of the world’s first recycling program for one of the most commonly littered items on the planet – cigarette butts. After launching the program in Canada in May, it was quickly expanded to the US and Spain with help from Santa Fe Natural Tobacco and British American Tobacco, respectively.
The collected cigarette butts are recycled into plastic pellets and used to make industrial products like shipping pallets.
