Every Core Counts

Sustainable practices today ensure us a better tomorrow. 

Program is only available to US customers within the 48 contiguous states. Customers in Alaska, Hawaii and internationally can still recycle their cores, but will need to pay for return shipping*

Step One:  Fill'er Up

Your empty Magna-Glide Classics bobbin box will double as the return package. This means that you are doubling your recycling: good for you! Be sure to fill your box to the very top with clean and thread free bobbin cores. Please try to keep the L and M cores separate. One L size box will hold approximately 500 cores, while one M size box will hold about 800 cores. This will allow for the most efficient processing of your returned cores, good deeds all around!

Step Two:  Get a label

Click here and fill out the requested information.

Step Three:  Bon Voyage

Print your label now or save time and paper. Just take your packaged cores and confirmation email with the label QR code to your local FedEx or Walgreens, and they will print your label. If you have a regular FedEx Ground driver, they can also take your package. Thank you for your support in a better tomorrow.


*If you are living outside the 48 contiguous states and would still like to recycle your cores or you would like to recycle your empty Magna-Glide Delights, Magna-Soft, Magna-Quilt or Magna-Guard bobbin cores, you still can. You will need to pay the return freight cost. Please ship the cores following the instructions in Step One above and ship to:
