What to do with a broken dildo?
Any sex toy collector (or reviewer) understands these dilemmas: A favorite toy breaks, and you feel bad throwing a giant mass of plastic in the garbage. You get a toy you thought you would like, but it really doesn’t trip your trigger when you finally get your hands on it. While sterilizable toys can sometimes be traded or gifted among like-minded folks (like those of us on the Toy Swap Network … hit me up on Twitter if you’re interested), a hell of a lot of toys can’t be properly sterilized. And of course, sterile or not, the day comes when all toys with moving parts finally stop moving.
What’s an environmentally-conscious toy hound to do? What to do with your old jelly (ick) rabbit, now that you’ve learned about phthalates & switched to an elastomer or silicone model? What to do with that beloved bullet vibe when it finally bites the dust? There’s enough sex-guilt in the world as it is… who wants to worry about their old vibrators destroying the planet?! (X-rated B-movie idea there… anyone? Like Christine only dildos instead of cars?)
Never fear, the brilliant Sex Toy Recycling Program is here to save the day! Not only are these fine folks willing to disassemble your unwanted sex toys, and sort them into the appropriate recycling bins, for every package of toys you send, they’ll give you a $10 gift certificate to one of their affiliated toy retailers as a thank you! All they ask is that you not abuse the gift certificate offer by sending every toy in a separate box (boo to greed!), and that you do them the favor of washing the toys thoroughly before sending them in!
