The Refill Station on Wheels
Can’t make it to the shop? We’ll bring the shop to you. We love hitting the road to make sustainable living in San Diego convenient and fun. Think of us as your “Traveling Eco-Boutique”—we provide the high-quality refills and sustainable swaps, and you provide the community.
- Apartment & Residential Events: Give your residents a unique, eco-friendly perk. We set up in your common area or lobby so neighbors can “refill, not landfill” right where they live.
- Fundraising for Good: Planning a 501(c)(3) charity event? We love to give back. We can donate a portion of our pop-up sales directly to your non-profit or local environmental cause.
- The Vibe: We make it easy, approachable, and mess-free. It’s a great way to introduce friends and family to zero-waste living in a social, relaxed setting.
Our Community Sales Guarantee: To keep our mobile services sustainable for our small business, we require a modest Minimum Sales Guarantee (typically $300–$500, depending on location).
- The Best Part: Most of our hosts pay $0 because their community is so excited to shop. If sales don’t reach the minimum, the host simply covers the difference.
