In an effort to reduce waste, TerraCycle, Inc. and Old Navy in Wareham Crossing are partnering in the Flip Flop Replay, a month-long drive to collect used flip flops and recycle them to be used in public playgrounds around the country.

The community can deposit used flip flops in designated collection bins at Old Navy from April 22, 2011 (Earth Day) through May 21.

TerraCycle, Inc. is an international upcycling company that takes difficult-to-recycle packaging and turns it into affordable, eco-friendly products. Founded in 2001, TerraCycle (www.terracycle.net) is the world’s leader in the collection and reuse of non-recyclable post-consumer waste.
