At Aveda, the pursuit of environmental sustainability guides every decision we make. Our new Returnable Shipper Program is our latest effort to minimize packaging and maximize our use of recyclable and post-consumer recycled materials.
Subject to eligibility.
Reduce, reuse and now, return.
Created specifically for our one-litre bottles, each Returnable Shipper can be reused up to 20 times or more,* helping to reduce corrugate packaging weight by at least 89%.**
AVEDA'S RETURNABLE SHIPPER PROGRAM
Produced with a minimum of 35% recycled content, including 25% Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) and 10% Post-Industrial Recycled (PIR) materials.
Covered with fabric made with 90% recycled polyester fibers consisting of 70% Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) and 20% Post-industrial Recycled (PIR) materials.
Designed to be disassembled and fully recycled when no longer in use.
The ties used to secure the returnable shipper are made with 96% PIR material. Send the ties back alongside the reusable cap protector to be recycled at the end of life.

HOW IT WORKS
Receive and return your shipper in a few simple steps
When your order arrives, cut the box’s zip tie seal.
Please help us recover these ties by sending your used lock with your shipper to be recycled.
STEP TWO
Unzip the box and remove your litre bottle, pump, and reusable cap protector.
STEP THREE
Collapse the empty shipper by lifting up the base and folding in the shorter sides.
STEP FOUR
Zip the outer layers together
Your return shipping label is already loaded into the pouch, and should be face-up.
STEP FIVE
Return the shipper by scheduling a UPS pickup or dropping off at any UPS location.
Please return your box within two weeks of initial receipt to help us ensure that all registered customers can participate in the program.
No payment needed.
*Based on conservative estimate of supplier’s/ Returnity’s analysis of the expected usable life of the box **Based on an empty Aveda corrugate shipping box and dunnage and an empty returnable shipper used 20 times.
