10+ Plastic Free July Tips for Your Home & Picnic

1. Start Small – Do What Works
Take guidance from the Plastic Free July campaign: start by refusing one single-use plastic item, whether it’s straws, bags or bottles. Tiny steps build sustainable habit

2. Switch to Reusables

• Swap plastic shopping bags for reusable tote bags.
• Use a reusable coffee cup and water bottle.
• Pack snacks and lunches in a stainless steel lunch box from ecojiko, or in certified compostable resealable zip lock bags from Eco Green Living.

3. Ditch Plastic Packaging
Choose unpackaged produce and shop in bulk using reusable produce bags. It slashes packaging and supports local food systems.

4. Embrace Compostable Alternatives
Eco Green Living’s plant-based bin liners and compostable cling film make plastic-free swaps easy and compostable. At ecojiko, compostable sponges and cloths are ideal for eco-friendly cleaning.

5. Reusable Cutlery On-the-Go
Pack bamboo or metal cutlery sets to avoid disposable plastic forks and spoons when eating out or during picnics.

6. Use Bar Soaps & Solid Toiletries

• Switch to soap bars, shampoo bars, and conditioner bars to ditch plastic bottles.
• Natural bar soaps are gentle and packaged plastic-free.
• Try their glass-packaged hand cream – perfect for sustainable skincare.

7. Zero-Waste Picnics
Include:

• Reusable plates and cups
• Bamboo cutlery
• Beeswax-wrapped sandwiches
• Stainless steel lunch boxes
• Enjoy drinks in reusable bottles or plastic-free recyclable drinks cans such as the Bubbles with Benefits from Wildlife Botanicals
  
  Pro tip: Line your basket with a fabric napkin instead of plastic wrap.

8. Waste Less Food
Meal-plan, use airtight containers, and compost leftovers. Eco Green Living’s compostable food storage and waste bags make it easy to manage food sustainably.

9. Take Reusable Items to Work
Bring your homemade lunch to work in a reusable food container, reusable cutlery, and tote bags to minimise plastic at your workplace.

10. Refuse What You Don’t Need
Practice saying no at cafes: “No straw, please.” “I’ve got my own container.”

11. Spread the Word
Plastic Free July encourages sharing your journey with supporters and peers – tag your sustainable swaps, motivate others, and foster change.

The Big Picture: Why It All Matters

Plastic pollution isn’t just unsightly – it harms oceans, wildlife, ecosystems, and human health. Single-use plastics can take centuries to decompose, entering food chains and polluting water sources. By making small, sustainable swaps like those above, we can reduce the demand for plastic production and pressure systems to change.

By participating in Plastic Free July, you're joining a global community making collective change. Brands like Eco Green Living and ecojiko are creating eco-friendly alternatives—whether reusable or compostable—that help reduce plastic at the source while maintaining everyday convenience.
