The barrier

Most people want the better option, but they won't go out of their way for it.

Sustainable home goods cost more, take research to choose, and are missing from the places people already shop. After conducting numerous consumer interviews, the founders realized the barrier is access, not interest.

  • 74% prefer eco-friendly products, as long as they don't cost more
  • 56% find greenwashing and product research too much to sort through
  • 70% will not go out of their way if it is not at their local shop

How it works for your property

Our Four Step Process

  1. Zero cost, zero hassle

    You provide a space and a standard outlet. Waste Not handles installation, stocking, and maintenance.

  2. We match your space

    Machines can be wrapped to fit your building's look, so the machine belongs.

  3. We keep it stocked

    The team watches what sells and restocks based on what your tenants buy.

  4. Your tenants have a say

    A QR code on the machine lets tenants request products. If it is sustainable, Waste Not stocks it.

What earns a slot

A product gets stocked only when it clears the bar.

Waste Not vets for clean ingredients and low waste before anything reaches a shelf. The standard:

  • No harmful chemicals. Free from parabens, PFAS, phthalates, triclosan, and talc.
  • Low or no virgin plastic, with minimal packaging.
  • Smaller sizes, so you can try a product without paying for a full-size commitment.
  • Priced with conventional options, not above them.
