Stopped ordering individually wrapped portions and our trash bin is half as full

This small change made a huge difference in waste, and I'm looking for more tips to make my operation greener.

Seeing your trash bin half full after ditching wrappers proves the point. We swapped out disposable cups for mugs and saw a similar drop in waste. Little swaps like that become habit pretty quickly.

What about those plastic grocery bags though? I switched to reusable bags years ago but my grandma still has that cabinet full of old ones lol. It's wild how much junk builds up without you even noticing. Once you start looking for single use stuff it's everywhere, like straws or those produce bags. Makes you realize how much small changes actually add up.

How about switching to bulk condiment dispensers? We did that last year and cut our plastic waste way down.
