How To Recycle Your Yumi Box


We want to give your baby the best, and that includes the environment they grow up in. That’s why we source recyclable, compostable, and reusable packaging. Below, we break down how to break down your box! 

The Box, Tray, and Jars

Our boxes, trays and jars are 100% curbside recyclable. Simply break down the box and tray, lick the jars clean, and kick it to the curb. If your town doesn’t have curbside recycling, you can look one up using this site. 

*Tip: If baby doesn’t finish their food, feel free to compost. It’s also pretty simple to contact a local farm, or do a search for a compost center near you.

The Insulation

Our compostable insulation is made from recycled jute coffee bags and raw cotton. This insulation is tightly woven to keep your ingredients nice and chilly. 

The Gel Packs

Our gel packs are nontoxic and noncaustic, so feel free to reuse them for beach trips or weekend picnics. 

You can also easily dispose of them. Just cut one corner of the bag, empty the gel content into the trash (not down sink or toilet), rinse out the plastic and curbside recycle – voila!
