Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ResQ Vape Box, and how does it work?

The ResQ Vape Stash Box is a personal storage container for used vapes, pods, and cartridges. Instead of tossing them in the trash, collect them in your box. Once full, visit our locator map to find a ResQ Bin drop-off point at a nearby vape shop. If your local shop isn’t listed, submit their info—we’ll reach out to get a bin in their store!

Why should I use resq instead of throwing my vapes away?

Vape waste contains hazardous materials like lithium batteries and plastic that don’t decompose, contributing to e-waste, pollution, and other hazards. Dropping off in ResQ Vape Bins ensures proper disposal, keeping toxins out of landfills and waterways.
