US (NY): New cannabis recycling program launched to collect empty packaging

Repot Box has launched its Cannabis Packaging Recycling Rewards Program.

Repot Box is dedicated to "closing the circle" on cannabis packaging waste and fostering sustainable practices throughout the industry. The typical life cycle of cannabis packaging starts in manufacturing for cultivators and processors, onto retail shelves, and ends in landfills after consumer use. Repot Box works with partnered-NYS Adult Use Retail Dispensaries to collect empty packaging onsite diverting that waste from landfills.

Repot Box offers a digital membership card to all consumers, who can redeem points and rewards for bringing in empty cannabis packaging. The Cannabis Recycling Rewards Program accepts all kinds of empty packaging from both the legal and illicit cannabis market.

Repot Box officially launched on April 20th, 2024 in Prospect Park (NYC), just two days before Earth Day (4/22).

"We are beyond thrilled to presentRepot Box to the world," said Monifa Foluke, Co-CEO and Co-Founder at RPB Sustainable Waste Management LLC dba Repot Box. Jamila Washington, Co-CEO and Co-Founder shared, "This launch represents a significant milestone in our journey as we strive to make a positive and sustainable impact on the cannabis industry and redefine what's possible."
