At Vapes MCR, we recognize the growing impact of plastic and electronic waste on our environment. As part of our commitment to sustainability, we’re dedicated to providing responsible recycling solutions for vaping products. We encourage our customers to join us in making eco-friendly choices by recycling their vape devices and e-liquid bottles properly.

Recycling E-Liquid Bottles

All e-liquid bottles sold through Vapes MCR are fully recyclable, including nibs and caps. Here’s how you can recycle them responsibly:
✅ Ensure all bottles, caps, and packaging are disposed of in the correct recycling bins.
✅ Clean and rinse empty e-liquid bottles to remove any leftover residue.
✅ Avoid disposing of vape bottles in regular waste bins.

How to Recycle Your Vape Kits

Vapes MCR provides eco-friendly methods for recycling e-cigarettes and their components. Follow these steps for responsible disposal:
🔹 Disassemble your device by removing the battery and coil.
🔹 Clean your tank to remove any leftover e-liquid.
🔹 Recycle plastic and glass parts in appropriate recycling bins.
🔹 Metal components should be placed in metal recycling bins.
🔹 Batteries must be disposed of in designated battery recycling bins.
🔹 Packaging materials (paper or cardboard) should be recycled separately.

Vape Recycling Partnership with Veolia

In response to the UK Government’s initiative to reduce vape waste, Vapes MCR has partnered with Veolia, a leading resource management company. This collaboration ensures that used vapes don’t end up in landfills or as street litter. Instead, their components are recycled and reintroduced into the supply chain.

How Our Recycling Programme Works

♻️ Customers can drop off used vapes—from any brand or retailer—at our store for recycling.
♻️ Even non-recyclable components can be repurposed for renewable energy production.
♻️ Our initiative provides a safe and convenient way to dispose of disposable vapes.

⚠️ Important Safety Notice: Never attempt to dismantle vape casings or batteries yourself. Let our experts handle the recycling process safely.

The Environmental Impact of Vaping

Recent studies show that 1.3 million disposable vapes are discarded each week in the UK. Improper disposal can:
🚨 Release harmful chemicals into the environment.
