Black Chicken Remedies Recycling program
Let's make a change
Every day in our society we are increasingly making a negative impact on our environment through large amounts of waste ending up in waterways, oceans and landfill; so here at Black Chicken Remedies we have decided to make a positive change and are now partnering with TerraCycle to reduce our impact. Customers will be able to return their used containers for a $10 e-gift card to use on the Black Chicken Remedies website.

3. Recycle

Can I drop it off to BCR?
Can I drop it off to BCR?
No, we will only accept items that are posted back to us. Unfortunately, due to the location of our warehouse, there is no parking available to drive and drop containers, all containers must all be sent back by post or courier to us.
What should I package my parcel in?
Pack all your used containers in a Black Chicken Remedies box, or any other box or packaging you have. Don’t forget to include your Full Name and Email Address on a piece of paper so our staff are able to email you your e-gift card. Then email us at support@blackchicken.com.au to let us know you are sending us some recycling.
Do I need to clean my containers prior to sending?
No, you don’t need to clean your containers prior to sending, please just make sure you’re not sending any remaining product in the containers. Once the containers are received by TerraCycle they will clean these at their facility prior to recycling as it is more water efficient for the containers to be cleaned in bulk not individually.
What if the parcel gets lost, do I still claim my reward?
Unfortunately, if your courier loses your parcel before it arrives to Black Chicken Remedies, we will be unable to provide the $10 reward as we will not have any packaging to return to TerraCycle.
