The HEWM Vape Recycling Program
Put Your Name at the Center of the Sustainability Moment.
Every dispensary needs a compliant way to handle vape device waste. HEWM installs the bin, handles pickup, and documents every step, so you're covered instead of guessing.
How It Works
One Bin. Full Compliance.
Placement
HEWM installs a compliant vape collection bin at your dispensary.
Pickup Scheduling
HEWM connects with you on a set cadence, no guesswork on timing.
Collection
We arrive, collect, and handle it, fully documented, fully compliant.
Documentation
Every pickup comes with a signed manifest, chain-of-custody you can point to.
The Gap We Built This For
Vape Waste Has Nowhere Compliant to Go
New York's cannabis market has grown to over 2,300 active licenses, and vape device disposal has become one of the sharpest compliance pressure points in the industry. OCM enforcement is tightening, and the infrastructure to handle battery-containing vape devices compliantly is still severely underdeveloped across the state. Most dispensaries are left improvising, or doing nothing at all.
HEWM built a program specifically to close that gap.
Why HEWM
More Than a Bin
01 — Revenue
More Foot Traffic, More Sales Opportunity
Customers come in specifically to drop off used vapes, every visit is another chance to sell them something while they're in the store.
02 — SUSTAINABILITY
Real Diversion, Not Just a Claim
Batteries and devices handled properly instead of landfilled. Something you can actually tell your customers, and mean it.
03 — COMPLIANCE
Documented, Every Time
Signed manifest on every pickup, chain-of-custody you can actually point to.
Monthly & Quarterly Options
Straightforward, no hidden structure. We know what OCM expects from a dispensary specifically, not generic waste rules.
