Recycling empty deodorant sticks can be confusing – some deodorant sticks can even be made from two different kinds of plastic!
Most deodorant sticks are made of #2, #4, and/or #7 plastics. The good news is, almost ALL deodorant sticks can actually be recycled.
So where can you recycle empty deodorant sticks?
The answer is most of the time you can just dump that deodorant stick right into the recycling bin. Follow these easy steps and you should be recycling your deodorant properly.
Another fun and environmentally friendly option would be to continue to reuse your deodorant container and make your own deodorant! Here is a fun summer deodorant recipe!
Not into making your own? Local companies like Piperwai give a local and worthy alternative.
