If they still have grounds in them, open and put into a container and use the grounds in your garden. The coffee grounds add nitrogen to the soil. The covers can then go in your recycle i would imagine.

Don't use nespresso so not sure what the 'wrappers' are made from but, coffee grinds are great in the compost!

You can reuse them by refilling with coffee and covering with tin foil.

if you want to recycle them they'll need a VERY good rinse - there's always heaps of coffee left in them!

Azaleas, Rhododendrons and Daphne love coffee grounds.

I love my nespresso. too lazy to recycle tho, takes ages to empty the pods out so I just biff them in the bin. Not good I know. Has anyone here bought any of the special blends ie vanilla, caramel etc. I think they bring them out atChristmas but never saw any so Im not sure if they made it to NZ.

You can take them into the Nespresso Store in New Market, they take them and that store is Fantastic, we went there last week,

but won't that affect the warranty! assuming the machine is still under warranty. but i have read that you can buy reusable pods. i've seen them on Tradme sometimes. i might give that a go when the warranty expires
