The Best Zero Waste Shops in England, Scotland, and Wales

Looking to ditch disposable bags, straws and packaging for good? These Zero Waste Shops in England, Scotland and Wales can help!

They offer sustainable alternatives to traditional products, so you can shop without harming the environment.

What Are Zero Waste Shops?

Zero waste shops allow customers to shop for items such as pasta, vegetables and grains without using any plastic packaging. The items are stored loose in large containers and you help yourself to the items that you want. 

How Do Zero Waste Shops Work?

You can bring your own containers to a zero waste shop, or you can purchase a reusable container while you are there. You fill the containers with the items that you need, which are usually sold by weight.

What Do Zero Waste Shops Sell?

There is a wide range of products that zero waste shops sell. Most people think of things such as fruit, vegetables and pasta, but there is a lot more available than this. Many shops also offer sustainable cosmetics and hygiene products such as soaps and shampoos.

Are Zero Waste Shops Expensive?

The prices at zero waste shops can be more expensive than you would find at the supermarket, but there are ways that you can save money. One of the advantages of zero waste shops is that you only buy what you need. You could also take your own containers rather than buying one while you are there.

Another thing to bear in mind is that many of the products that you buy in a zero waste store will be organic and locally sourced. This means they are likely to be better quality than you would find in a supermarket and people are often prepared a bit more for this quality.
