Value Buds Recycling

Let’s keep cannabis packaging out of landfills.

Cannabis packaging wasn’t made for traditional recycling systems. So in 2020, Value Buds partnered with [Re] Waste to tackle a big problem - cannabis packaging that often ends up in landfill.

Together, we’ve built one of Canada’s leading cannabis packaging recovery programs, collecting thousands of containers and giving them a second life.

More customers are recycling with us than ever before. That’s a big win, but keeping up means expanding how much packaging we can collect, transport and process.

Round up your purchase and help us keep it growing. Every little bit helps us collect more, recycle more and waste less.
