How to Recycle

Step 1

Separate all components to recycle each part of your planner individually (think bonus features like snap-in rulers – anything other than paper). Wire bindings are recyclable, paper pockets are recyclable, and all dated/non-dated pages without foil or tabs are recyclable.

Step 2

Recycle all paper without stickers or foil on it (including paper pockets); cut out or remove laminated tabs, sticker sheets, and anything with foil and throw those pieces in the trash.

Step 3

Recycle all plastic (including bound-in plastic pockets, snap-in rulers, and plastic/flexible covers), as well as your wire binding. If your item has plastic or embellished coverings on the exterior corners, please be sure to remove these elements before recycling!

Step 4

Remove the outside front and back covers from your planner. Currently, all plastic Blue Sky covers are recyclable and can be placed in the recycling bin. Hardcover, book-bound, and clear pocket covers from our CYO planners cannot be recycled at this time. If you are using any of these types of planners, these covers should be placed in the trash.
