We are big on the three Rs at Sports Basement. We do our best to make it easy for people to recycle and upcycle stuff by collecting a multitude of not-for-landfill items at our stores. That includes batteries, shoes, shopping bags and more — check your local store to see exactly what they accept.
Waste to Waves
Sports Basement has teamed up with Waste to Waves to collect all that evil Styrofoam (aka EPS Foam) we all get from packaging.
Sports Basement moves to recycled paper bags
Sports Basement and its customers use a lot of plastic shopping bags. This not-so-green fact had been hanging over our heads for a while. So we set out to find a 100% recycled paper bag that wouldn't break the bank.
