CVS: Recycle Consumer Pharmacy Bottles

I am writing to encourage you to allow customers to return pharmacy prescription bottles for recycling, and prevent unnecessary waste from entering our landfills. 

Currently, Publix Grocery is the only pharmacy in the nation that allows customers to bring back their consumer pharmacy bottles for recycling, and I look forward to seeing CVS Pharmacy join the fight shortly.

Why is this important?

Currently, Publix Grocery is the only pharmacy in the nation that allows customers to bring back their consumer pharmacy bottles for recycling. With much success, Publix customers returned more than 8.2 million Publix Pharmacy vials for recycling in 2018 alone.

CVS Pharmacy is the largest retail pharmacy in the nation and is estimated to serve over five million customers daily.

Join me in urging CVS Pharmacy to allow customers to return pharmacy prescription bottles for recycling, and prevent unnecessary waste from entering our landfills.
