Angry Orchard’s Ex‑Change Program Lets You Trade Your Ex’s Leftover Junk for Hard Cider This Valentine’s Day
The nation’s leading hard cider brand[1] is transforming your breakup baggage into your next case of cider.
WALDEN, NY, Feb. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Breakups come with more than just emotions. They leave you stuck with your ex’s abandoned junk and the irritation that follows. This Valentine's Day, is helping the heartbroken transform their ex's abandoned belongings into something they actually want: hard cider. Through the Angry Orchard Ex-Change program, drinkers can ship their ex’s old junk to the Angry Orchard Cider House in exchange for cash toward a fresh case of cider. Consider it the ultimate trade up.
If your ex left their stuff at your place months ago – maybe even years ago – and never came back for it, it’s time for an upgrade. Starting Feb. 2, fans can visit angryorchardexchange.com to register for a free Angry Orchard Ex-Change Kit, complete with packaging materials and a prepaid shipping label. Box up those annoying reminders – the forgotten hoodie, dusty vinyl, or that hideous poster that never matched anything in your place anyway – and send it all to the Angry Orchard Cider House.
Once Angry Orchard receives your ex’s abandoned stuff, the team will send you cash to put toward a case of cider. Your ex's baggage becomes your fresh start and a fully stocked fridge. All items will be sorted and donated, so nothing goes to waste… except the relationship itself.
