Looking for practical ways to reduce waste? This directory highlights businesses and community initiatives that make low-waste living more accessible, from refill stores and reusable food systems to tool libraries and libraries of things.
At A Greener Future, we know that reducing waste starts with better systems. This directory is designed to help people find local options that support reuse, refill, repair, and sharing.

Low Waste Shopping Tips
Only buy what you need - excess purchasing can lead to excess waste.
Remember your reusables - don’t forget to bring your reusable bags and containers (cleaned and dry) to avoid unnecessary single-use plastics. Many of the stores in our directory offer deposit programs on refillable containers if you forget to bring your own.
Weigh your containers - when shopping in bulk, don’t forget to weigh your containers before filling them. If you’re not sure how, ask a store employee!
Do what’s best for you - avoid the pressure of feeling like you need to do waste reduction perfectly. Not every “zero waste swap” will work for you, and that’s okay.
Support local small businesses - like the ones in our directory!
