Turn Empty Coffee Bags Into Texas Comebacks

Texas coffee fans can cut waste with a simple habit. Finish your beans, bring the empty bag back, and drop it in an R+R return box at select roasters. Savor Brands runs the R+R Upcycle Program to keep coffee bags in use and out of landfills. The loop is easy to follow and it helps shops welcome customers back for more great coffee while shrinking our footprint across the state.

Why Returning Bags Matters

  • Builds a reuse habit that lowers trash volume
  • Turns a quick drop off into a reason to restock beans
  • Sparks real conversations about waste and better choices
  • Keeps plastic packaging from piling up in Texas landfills
  • Shows support for local roasters that invest in sustainability

How the R+R Upcycle Program Works

  • Collect only empty, clean coffee bags in the in store box
  • Bags are gathered for responsible reuse and repurpose
  • Materials get a second life as useful products instead of waste
  • The cycle repeats every time you bring back another bag
