PAOV — Tim Hortons sells nearly 5 million cups of coffee every day - that’s 2 billion cups of coffee a year in non-recyclable disposable coffee cups. Their current policy of not allowing reusable mugs was designed to help stop the spread of COVID-19. Over 29,000 people are urging Tim Hortons to follow the environmental lead of other coffee chains and implement a safe and contactless way for customers to use reusable mugs. Show your support by signing the petition now.
Hey Tim Hortons, Accept Reusables Mugs Again!

Sign now with a clickSince the pandemic, Tim Hortons has refused to allow customers to use reusable mugs. It’s now 2022. Current evidence strongly suggests transmission from contaminated surfaces does not contribute substantially to new infections [1].
According to their website, Tim Hortons serves over 5 million cups of coffee every day [2] - that’s nearly 2 billion cups a year! The cups are not recyclable (although the lids are in some municipalities), so most cups end up in the trash or littering our roads and natural areas.
Tims’ competitors have began to accept reusable mugs, and Tim Hortons needs to follow suit. Starbucks uses a contact-free method by having the customer place their reusable mug in a wide-mouthed mug. This way the employee ever touches the customer’s mug. It’s so simple.
Tim Hortons, please reintroduce the use of reusable mugs in your restaurants! #contactlesscoffee
