Recycling Bin Mug

A recycling bin is an odd place to put your coffee, which is the whole appeal here. The BigMouth Inc Recycling Bin Mug turns that familiar bin shape into a cup that holds 12 ounces of coffee or tea. The joke is right there on the desk, no explanation required.

This is a good gift for the coworker who cares about recycling and also appreciates a deeply silly mug. The bin design gives it more personality than another cup with an office slogan printed on it. For a novelty-mug collector, it earns its spot by committing to the bit: your drink goes in the recycling bin.

For the person whose enthusiasm shows up in everyday habits, it’s a small nod rather than a grand statement about saving the planet. Give it to the person who knows which bin everything belongs in. Let them decide how they feel about coffee joining the sorting system.
