I will keep eating at Potbelly's.

Hello Rachel ~

Thanks for writing to us. We're so happy to hear that you enjoy time spent at our stores. We also appreciate your concern for the environment, as well as the part we play in it. I'm happy to let you know that we do recycle at some of our locations and have our trash separated at others. Unfortunately, there are stores where we are already locked into contracts that don't include recycling. However, we have receptacles built for recycling in our stores for the hopes that when we renew contracts or recycling programs become available in the area, we can switch to include it. Please know that we aim to do our part in becoming more green as a whole. I hope this makes a little more sense.
