Plastics Statement

We were very aware at Amy's of the huge problem of plastics waste in the retail industry. We made an effort as a small business to minimise our contribution to the problem by taking the following steps:

When packing up customer orders we re-used bubble wrap, foam and air pillows that came from our suppliers rather than using new material. When needed we used paper products for packaging.
Any materials that our suppliers sent that we couldn't re-use (such as mailing bags) we recycled.
We used paper tape for securing boxes and plastic tape only to secure mailing labels and bags.
We used biodegradable mailing bags to protect our cardboard boxes when shipping during wet weather and internationally.
For small items we re-used padded bags that came from our suppliers or new "Jiffy Green" bags that are padded with paper, not plastic.
