    Hi Robin!
    Thanks for your comment! We have one at our office too and yes, they are a great machine.
    To answer your question: The container is recyclable and the foil is recyclable but not together so you have to remove the foil which I think is quite easily done. Make sure the items are free of any residue.
    I hope this answers your question!!

    I purchased a Kuerig coffee maker, love the coffee, hate throwing the little plastic containers in the garbage! Any suggestions?
