Waste Disposal Guidelines

The use of caps and pods is now common in most homes and offices; however, it is not always known exactly how to dispose of them correctly once used.

We premise that in some cases the reference standards (too general) can lend themselves to different interpretations and to this is added that the discretion of the individual municipalities can lead to different provisions depending on your residence.

Below we try to clarify and give you guidelines for the correct disposal of the various types of pods and capsules for sale on our website.

However, we invite you to ALWAYS compare yourself with the requirements of your Municipality of residence or to call us for further clarifications. Finally, we specify that what is indicated here is valid EXCLUSIVELY for Dolce Vita products of which we know exactly the composition of the individual materials. Capsules from other brands may have different methods of disposal from those indicated below.
