How to handle Dry Ice
Handling dry ice safely is crucial since it is extremely cold and hovers around -109.3°F. Here are some recommendations:
-To safely dispose of dry ice, remove the entrées from the cooler and leave any remaining dry ice inside the cooler. With the box flaps left loosely opened, allow the dry ice to sublimate in a well-ventilated, safe area away from children or pets.
-Handle dry ice carefully and wear protective clothing/gloves to prevent freezer burn.
-Never dispose of dry ice in a sink, drain, toilet, or garbage can, as doing so can cause severe damage to pipes and surfaces.
-Never store dry ice in a tightly sealed container, such as a plastic or glass bottle, or any container with a screw-top lid that will not vent. Styrofoam is an appropriate storage material since it is both insulated and not airtight.
Is your packaging recyclable?
Yes! The box and meal sleeves can be recycled with other paper products. Once the dry ice has evaporated, the bags and plastic trays can be recycled with other clean plastics. The large insulation can be recycled anywhere, but it can also be repurposed as padding for a pet's bed or insulation for a grocery cold bag.
