Plastic-Free On the Go: What to Keep in Your Everyday Eco Kit

Plastic-free essentials: a woman explores a shop specialising in plastic free products and refillable containers

Living sustainably isn’t just something you do at home — it’s a mindset you can take with you everywhere. Whether you’re commuting, travelling, or running errands, it’s easy to reduce your reliance on single-use plastic by keeping a few essentials in your bag. Here’s how to create your own everyday eco kit.

Why You Need an Eco Kit

We’ve all been there: grabbing a takeaway coffee, picking up a snack, or getting caught in the rain without a bag. Having a few reusable items on hand helps you avoid the most common plastic pitfalls — and saves money in the long run.

Plastic-Free Essentials to Carry With You

  • Reusable Water Bottle – Stay hydrated without buying bottled water. Our insulated bottles keep drinks hot or cold for hours.
  • Reusable Coffee Cup – Bring your coffee cup to your favourite café and avoid waste (some even offer a discount!).
  • Cutlery Set – Say no to plastic cutlery with a compact bamboo or stainless steel set in a handy pouch.
  • Foldable Tote Bag – Keep a lightweight fabric bag in your backpack or glovebox for spontaneous shopping or carrying extras.
  • Snack Container or Wrap – Perfect for packed lunches or leftover treats. Look for stainless steel tins or beeswax wraps.
  • Cloth Napkin – Great for spills, picnics, or doubling as a placemat. Simple, washable, and zero waste.

Bonus Tips

  • Keep your eco kit packed and ready by the door, in your car, or in your work bag.
  • Don’t forget to clean your reusables regularly — a quick rinse or cloth bag wash keeps things hygienic and fresh.
  • Customise your kit based on your day — add straws, food containers, or an extra napkin if needed.
