Plastic-free living does not mean replacing everything you own. It means noticing the single-use items you get through most often and finding a reusable option you will actually keep using. This page shows where to begin.
How to use this site
- Pick one area. Kitchen, bathroom, cleaning, or life on the go. Choose the one that produces the most rubbish in your home.
- Read one guide. Each guide explains the options, the materials and the trade-offs in plain language.
- Make one swap. Use up what you have first, then replace it. Come back for the next one when the habit has settled.
Three principles we work by
- Use what you own first. Throwing away a working item to buy a greener one creates waste.
- Reusables pay off through use. A reusable product only helps if you use it many times.
- Progress, not perfection. Almost nobody is completely plastic-free. A few lasting changes are what count.
Not sure which area to pick? The Plastic-Free Starter Quiz takes about a minute and suggests a first step.
