Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to know about dropping off Vape Cartridges?

Make sure cartridges have been used up, and put the cartridges in sealable plastic bags to prevent leaking. You can put multiple cartridges in one plastic bag. Please keep vape pens out of the plastic bags.

Why can't I recycle my cannabis packaging at home?

Some Municipal recycling programs accept the types of packaging used for cannabis products, while others do not. Also, not all residents have convenient access to recycling services. The HYRYSE™ program provides a convenient option for consumers to return their empty cannabis packaging when they enter a store for their next purchase. The real benefit is that our program ensures all collected packaging is delivered directly to our recycling partner, who verifies all recyclable packaging is properly recovered. Something municipal recycling programs do not do.

Where do the products go?

We send Cannabis packaging to one of our trusted partners, ReVital Polymers in Sarnia, Ontario and Vape products to various Ontario facilities. Everything stays in Canada!

What's the difference between landfill diversion and recycling?

Recycling products and packaging are what we prefer to do—sorting, washing and pelletizing plastic packaging so that the materials can be used repeatedly to make new packaging and products. Vape pens are sent for recycling at one of Canada's largest electronics recycling facilities. Landfill diversion is what we do when recycling isn't possible. When it comes to vape cartridges, we cannot recycle cartridges per Canadian law as they contained a controlled substance. What we can do is ensure that cartridges are recovered for energy at an energy from waste facility.

What's different between your recycling program and other cannabis package recycling programs?

Plenty! The HYRYSE™ program is run by a BIPOC family-owned, female-led Canadian company, who partners with other green Canadian companies. From recyclables collection to sorting and processing, it's all done in Canada. That is not only good for accountability and traceability but also for the Canadian economy. Our process is also different. We analyze the packaging collected through this program to help cannabis companies determine what types of packaging are better for the circular economy and what types of packaging are easier to recycle. This will help licensed producers make better packaging decisions. This isn’t about merely trying to recycle the packaging that is dropped off. It's about making sure future packaging is more recyclable.

When will a store with the HYRYSE™ program open near me?

Currently, you can find our collection points in Montrose Cannabis, Prairie and Luna Cannabis, and all Delta9 locations. Know a store that should join? Send them our info so we can be new buds.
