Instructions
Before you pack the bin up, please prepare the interior and exterior of your Mill for shipping.
- Unpair your bin: open the Mill app and navigate to Menu
→ Device and tap “Remove your bin.”
- Empty all Food Grounds and scraps from the bucket so that it is as clean as possible.
3. Place the bucket into a plastic trash bag and place it back into the bin.
4. Remove the carbon filter from the bin. Do not send this part back.
- Keep it for a while. Even when not installed in the bin, the activated charcoal will continue to soak up odors for several months. Set it near a trash can or litter box to reduce smells.
- Use it for a science experiment or craft project. Grow a crystal forest, see how charcoal can purify water, or use it as a flower pot.
- Dispose of it — The plastic drawer was heat-treated and unfortunately can’t be recycled easily. Burying activated charcoal is a form of carbon sequestration, so putting it in the trash won’t add emissions.
5. Tape the lid closed and tape the rear door in place to keep things secure during shipping.
6. Hank and secure the power cord together.
Packing the Mill
- Make sure the bottom paper pulp tray is placed in the cardboard base tray. Take note of where the base tray says “pedal”.
- Lift the bin being sure that the pedal is over the side that says “pedal” and place it into the base tray assembly.
- Take the top pulp piece and place it over the top of the bin. The profile of the pulp matches the profile of the top of the bin.
- Lift the outer box over the top of the entire assembly, pushing down until the outer box reaches the floor.
- Secure the box together with the 4 black clips.
- Tape the bottom of the box as needed.
7. Place the FedEx return label OVER the original shipping label on the box.
8. Self-schedule a FedEx pickup or reach out to Mill Support if you need pickup assistance. On the pickup day, you can leave the box outside or in your designated package area for FedEx.
