Recycle your waste with Old Navy®

  • Sponsor logo

Every year millions of used flip-flops are needlessly discarded and end up in landfills. TerraCycle® is proud to partner with Old Navy® to create a second life for used flip-flops.

From April 22nd to May 21st Old Navy Stores within the continental US will collect used, dirty and broken flip-flops. Each store will have a box located near the entrance where you can drop off your flip-flops.

Old Navy will send these boxes back to TerraCycle once the program is finished. TerraCycle will repurpose the flip-flops into playgrounds that Old Navy will give away to a few lucky schools or community organizations that participate in TerraCycle Brigades.

Not only will you be keeping your flip-flops out of landfill, you’ll be helping to create a playground for a TerraCycle Brigade location!

Participation in the Flip-Flop Brigade is simple and it’s completely FREE. Simply bring your flip-flops to the Old Navy store near you and put them in the collection box at the front of the store. There is no purchase necessary to participate in this program and you do not need to sign up on the TerraCycle page to participate. Please note this program is not available in Old Navy stores located in Canada, Alaska, Hawaii or Puerto Rico.

If you would like more information or have any questions, please check out the Flip-Flop Brigade FAQ. Old Navy is proud of their partnership with TerraCycle and are committed to making a difference. Join our effort to reduce the impact of our manufacturing plants on the planet each year.

The following types of waste can be collected through the Flip Flop Brigade: Waste Accepted: foam flip flops, cloth, flip flops, foam deconstructed sandal, plastic flip flop, rubber flip flop.
