Is the plastic actually recycled, and where do the blocks go?Updated 11 days ago
Your SPC blocks are never landfilled or incinerated, and they don't enter municipal waste streams. The entire recycling chain is U.S.-based for full accountability. Here's the journey of every block:
- You compact your soft plastics into a clean, stackable block.
- You mail it with the prepaid label directly to our verified U.S. partners (for example, Frankfort Plastics Inc. in Indiana) — it never enters municipal waste streams.
- It's baled with other film and flexible plastics and reprocessed into clean pellets/feedstock.
- That feedstock is remade into durable goods like outdoor furniture and industrial supplies.
We don't landfill, incinerate, or export — keeping the process local eliminates the risk of waste being shipped overseas and gives a clear, verified outcome for every block. You can watch how it works in this short video: How Clear Drop recycling works.
