How a refill works
The first visit takes a few minutes longer. After that, the stickers on your containers do most of the work.
Bring it clean and dry
Wash and dry jars, tins, bags or bottles at home. Damp containers spoil oats and flour within days.
Weigh it empty
We weigh each container at the counter and stick the weight on it, so it never has to be weighed again.
Fill it
Use the gravity bins and scoops for dry foods. Cleaning and body liquids come from the pumps on the far wall, which the team will help with.
Weigh and pay
At the till the empty weight is taken off, and you pay for exactly what is inside.
Order online, collect it filled
Online orders are filled into our returnable jars and bottles. There is a $1 deposit on each, paid back when you bring it in.

Some refills cost less than the packaged version and some cost more. Buying only the amount you need is where most of the saving comes from.
Bring it clean, bring it dry
Any container that closes well will do: glass jars, tins, cloth bags, old bottles. Wash it, let it dry completely and bring the lid. We weigh it empty and mark the weight on a sticker that survives the dishwasher.
Forgot one? There are paper bags at the door and a shelf of washed jars that customers have given us, at a small charge to cover cleaning. Food containers and cleaning containers are filled at separate stations, so the two never meet.
- Clean, completely dry and with a lid that fits
- Weighed empty once, marked for good
- Washed jars at the door if you forget
What we cannot refill, for safety
These rules protect you and the next customer at the same bin. We will always explain, and we will not bend them.
- Food into a container that held chemicals, paint, fuel or oil
- Cleaning products into food or drink bottles
- Anything into a cracked, damp or unclean container
- Liquids into containers without a secure lid
- Bleach, drain cleaner or solvents, which we do not sell loose
- Anything for a baby's feeding
Every cleaning refill gets a printed sticker with the product name and its safety advice, even in a bottle you have used before. Our dry goods share scoops and a room, so we cannot promise any of them is safe for someone with a severe allergy.
Inside the shop
From the counter and the online orders (example reviews)
The weight sticker on each jar means a refill run takes ten minutes now. The team explained the pumps the first time and never rushed.
Turned away an old oil bottle for washing up liquid and explained why, then offered a washed bottle from the shelf instead. Fair enough.
Ordered oats and lentils online and collected them filled in returnable jars. The deposit came back on the next visit, as promised.
Questions about refilling
Do customers have to bring their own containers?
Bringing your own is the idea, but paper bags are at the door and washed jars are on the shelf for anyone who forgets. Online orders come in our returnable jars.
Are the dry goods safe for allergies?
We cannot promise that. Nuts, seeds, flours and grains share a room and some scoops, so traces can travel. Anyone with a severe allergy should not rely on loose food from any shared bin.
How are the bins kept clean?
Each bin is emptied, washed and dried before it is refilled, never topped up on old stock, and its best before date is written on the front.
Can a cleaning bottle from another shop be refilled?
Yes, if it held the same kind of product and is clean. It gets our sticker with the product name and safety advice either way.
Is refilling cheaper?
Sometimes. Staples and cleaning liquids often cost less than packaged versions, some specialist foods cost more, and buying only the amount you need saves the most.
Do you take regular orders for offices or cafes?
Yes. Send the form with what you use in a month and we suggest a regular order in sacks or large returnable containers.
Ask about a bulk or regular order
Cafes, offices, schools and big households can order oats, rice, coffee and cleaning liquids by the sack or the large returnable container. Tell us what you use, and within two working days you get prices plus the days we collect or deliver.
- Sacks and returnable containers, nothing single use
- Regular orders weekly or monthly
- Payment arranged directly with the shop
