UK members - For anyone else who over the years has wondered exactly how one recycles a Ren bottle (which says recyclable but you can't open it to rinse it out to put it in recycling) and has guiltily thrown it away...
I finally looked it up.
Just stick it in a padded envelope or little box (see.. all those EDS and EBAY packages come in handy!) and write FREEPOST REN on it.

Only available in the UK. I'm guessing they will do something similar in the US or drop off at Whole Foods now they are there. |

I just shove mine in the recycling bin regardless. Does this mean I'm truly evil? |

I think I did ignore at least more than once on other used products that required re-cycled |

That is brilliant thinking by them. I love to do something good for the environment |

True...but it would be better if one could open the bottles to rinse out so it could just go in with all the other household recycling and picked up by the nice men..
But I understand they have special packaging, like inside the shower gel, theree's actually a special bag so that one can get the smell from outside the bottle. |

I agree it would be better to just be able to put it in your own recycling (we recycle almost everything in my house) but it is good that they are offering this service and free of charge aswell. |
