How to Recycle Your Watermelon Burst Dog Toothpaste

Step 1

Before recycling, give the tube and cap a good rinse to remove any leftover product. Make sure to separate the flip cap from the tube. They need to be recycled individually.

Step 2

Sort Your Components 🔍

Not everything can go in the recycling bin. Here's the breakdown:

❌ Bin — the silicone insert, plastic straw, and spring are not recyclable and should go in your general waste bin

✅ Recycle — the tube, label, and cap are made from PP [5] polypropylene, which is accepted in most kerbside recycling bins across Australia, including NSW.

Step 3

Smile and go play with your dog. You’re contributing to a greater cause.
