Nearly 2.3 million pounds of wrapping waste from the holidays ends up in landfills across the country every year. Mark Miller Subaru hosted our 5th annual Wrapping Paper Collection Event to provide a place where the public can recycle wrapping paper after the holidays and keep it out of our landfills. A huge thanks to everyone who helped us fill 11 large Zero Waste boxes from TerraCycle, properly recycling more than 200 pounds of holiday gift waste. A common mistake many people make around the holidays is loading their recycling bins with wrapping paper, tissue, ribbons, and more. Unfortunately, the shiny, laminated paper is, in fact, not recyclable in most circumstances. Did you know, you can collect your snack wrappers and disposable cups, lids, and straws at home and drop them off at Mark Miller Subaru in our TerraCycle Zero Waste Boxes for proper recycling? Our individual conservation actions can make a big impact. We invite you to join us in our Subaru Loves the Earth initiatives! Learn more at subaru.com/earth.
