Our Packaging Materials & Recycling for the Environment
The Number One goal of the Tu Spirits LLC Shipping Department is for your items to arrive in perfect condition. We use several different packaging methods to ensure your order arrives in perfect condition. We also care about the environment. That is why we make every attempt to ensure our packaging materials are recyclable, and, where possible, made from recycled materials themselves.
Boxes
All Tu Spirits LLC orders are shipped in a corrugated container composed of 25 to 30 percent post-consumer recycled material. After you receive your order you should be able to send the box directly to your local recycling center. We suggest removing any labels (shipping, etc.) to ensure your privacy.
Bubble Wrap
This ingenious invention is made up from recycled materials and in most areas can be sent to the plastics area of your local recycling center.
Peanuts
Another terrific invention! There are some products we ship out that require packing peanuts to ensure the shipment arrives at your door in perfect condition.
All of the peanuts we use are made from recycled, non-toxic materials and can be recycled again. You can contact your local recycler for instructions on how to dispose of them. If your local recycler does not accept them you can offer them to your local schools for classroom projects, local businesses, or your local pack-and-ship stores for reuse.
Or you can use them at the bottom of your planters (flowers, garden veggies, etc) where you would normally use rocks. They are lightweight, do not hold water, but still allow plants to drain.
