The sturdy green recycling truck from innovative toymakers Sprig is made of their trademarked “Stigwood” — an eco-friendly composite of reclaimed wood and recycled plastic. Like other Sprig toys, it’s not painted. Instead, it’s dyed during the production process with safe pigments that have no heavy metals in them. This truck is good for the environment, and a joy to play with, too. A recycling bin is included that can be picked up and emptied into the truck, and the… More >>

Thank you, Sprig, for continuing to create eco-friendly products that are reasonably priced, durable, and highly enjoyable. My 22 month old son is enamored with his Sprig trucks, and we love them, as well. Light weight- easy to transport to the beach, etc. Durable- gets dropped, kicked, and rammed into things. Hasn’t shown so much as a scratch. Smells LOVELY. I keep sniffing it. Sprig integrates wood chips into the trucks, so they smell like a real wood shop. Sniff sniff. Awesome. This truck comes with a small blue bucket that can attach to the back, for filling and dumping. As with his other Sprig truck, the bed of the truck can be locked into place by a slider bar underneath- very convenient for letting younger children enjoy the truck, without getting frustrated.
And speaking of frustration, I love the Frustration-Free packaging. My husband simply slit the top of the box from Amazon open, and let our 22 month old have at it. He got the truck out of the box, and out of its’ packaging, in under a minute, and was very proud of himself. Good job, Amazon. Keep it up! You are saving countless parents a lot of headache, especially on Christmas Eve- in our house, Santa sets up the toys he brings, which has resulted in a lot of cursing and swearing. Last year was wonderful, with the Frustration-Free products we got. Thanks again!!!

Great little toy! Our son loads up the removable ‘blue-bin’ (just like ours at home!) and sets the bin in the loader, an easy flip of the butterfly-knob… and Voilà! Recyclables in the bin are recycled in the big-box! So cool. When he is a loaded up, he pulls the big lever and dumps away. Totally stoked on this little truck… love the real lessons we can teach and Oscar can put into practice… and it is made of recycled stuff too! Well done.

this was bought for our year old boy who loves trucks. he carries it around by the handle on top, pushes it, makes truck noises for it, spins the wheels. he also has dropped it down a short flight of stairs. pretty sure this was the start of the truck falling apart – not even a week after he started playing with it. the back end that opens and closes had broken off. a few weeks later, the small pins that hold the truck in a locked position vs dump position have now broken off too. our boy doesn’t seem to notice or care, but one day he might notice the other back piece and want it fixed. it’s a disappointment in the durability category, but still a thumbs up in the play value.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for a friends 3 yr old son when I saw it on sale for $9.99. My friends son immediately loved it and starting playing with it right away, ignoring the other toys he received. He spent hours filling it up with paper bits, driving it around the living room and then recycling the paper (as he put it). Overall, I think that this truck is made well, felt sturdy and I love that it’s a recycling truck made from recycled materials. And the minimal packaging was a joy as well. I definitely plan to order from this line again.

I purchased this for my soon to be 5 year old. I checked over this truck and has many neat “dumping” modes. It is sure to please my child. I like that is is made from recycled materials as well. My only complaint is that is does have a faint odor of some kind…but I’m sure it will fade, and I’m not sure of it’s durability. It seems durable to some degree, but how much play can it handle? I purchased this on sale at half price and am happy with the price I payed. I would have passed on it at the full price of twenty dollars…a bit much for this toy. It does look like fun, and though the durability is in question, at half price..I am pleased, and I’m sure my child will love this when he finds it under the Christmas tree.
