TerraCycle Review ~ #HGG

Have you heard of TerraCycle? They make products that are of high-quality, all-natural, affordable, and made of recycled materials. Yes they diverted over two billion pieces of trash from going to the landfill. What a great idea and they have now partnered with the USPS.

The United States Postal Service, operating for over 200 years, has always thrown away used mail sacks. By partnering with the USPS, TerraCycle has found a way to upcycle waste that has never had a distinct purpose other than to carry mail. This will be the first time in history the USPS will allow their bags to be reused to become new products and what great products they make. I was given a chance to review the USPS Pouch and the Recycled Chip Bag Tote.
USPS Tote Bags, Pouches, and Cases 
The mail sack pouch, tote, and iPad case are handmade from repurposed USPS mail sacks. The pouch is perfect for stashing cash, credit cards, and keys. The iPad case is lined with a gentle ultrasuede to protect your iPad, Kindle, or Nook with an outside pocket perfect for chargers. This is a great supplementary gift if you’re thinking of buying your loved one a tablet or e-reader for the holidays. This is also the first time in history the USPS will allow their bags to be reused to become new products! 


Lined with a soft dark green inside. Making sure that your screen will not be scratched. I just love the look of this pouch.

I can not wait to give this to my oldest son. I know that he is going to just love it. It will be a great conversation piece as well and I am sure his tablet will be safe in it as well. 
 Recycled Chip Bag Totes
TerraCycle has created a line of innovative, recycled chip bag totes. This colorful and functional ReTote is made from pre-consumer waste from the Lays Classic packaging material. These large tote bags are a great choice for groceries or a trip to the beach. 
 I have been using my chip bag when I go grocery shopping and I have had a ton of people ask me were I got it and that they really liked it. What a great statement piece. I care about the environment and what is going on with all our land fills. So any way that I can help reduce that I am all for it. 

The also have the Drink Pouch Backpacks.Which I think would make for a great Christmas gift for the kids. My youngest thought they were pretty cool. He gives it two thumbs up. 

I have to say any of TerraCycle products would make for great Christmas presents and while you do that you are also helping the environment. So make sure to head on over and see all they have to offer. You might just like what you see and you will wind up with a few pieces.

To keep up with the latest info make sure you like them on Facebook.
