Your trash has value.
Your community keeps it.
Bring your sorted recyclables to a collection point near you, earn Environmental Points on the spot, and redeem them as cashback at your neighbourhood stores — so the value of what you recycle stays in your community.
Saving the environment while helping the community — one recyclable at a time.
Sort, exchange, redeem.
- Step 1 · Sort
Separate your recyclables at home — paper, plastic, metal, glass. Clean and dry, in their own bags.
- Step 2 · Exchange
Bring them to a collection point. Everything is weighed and recorded, and you earn Environmental Points instantly.
- Step 3 · Redeem
Redeem points as cashback at partner sari-sari stores, pharmacies and neighbourhood shops.
Five pillars carry every kilogram.
Trash to Cashback is not a one-day drive — it is a complete loop. Each pillar exists because the one before it would fail without it.
Every number comes from a weighed exchange.
Figures reconcile to the BEST exchange ledger. The program also runs inside master-planned private estates, including Fort Bonifacio (Taguig) and the Ortigas Center.
See the measured resultsEvery kilogram is traceable — and counted once.
Behind every figure on this page is an unbroken chain of custody. Each kilogram keeps its origin — verified, recorded and reconciled — so a resident, an LGU or an auditor can trust the totals. They are not claims; they are accounted-for material.

Who is BEST?
Basic Environmental Systems & Technologies, Inc. (BEST) — Total Waste Solutions — has served Philippine communities since 1999 and is 75% owned by IPM Holdings, Inc. What makes it unusual is that it stands on every side of the waste problem at once: the developer that builds communities, the hauler that carries their waste, and the recovery operator that gives it somewhere better to go. Trash to Cashback is how that last role reaches your doorstep.
