Reuse for Seattle cafés

Transitioning away from single-use cups and containers is good for business.

Reuse offers big benefits for cafés!

By switching from single-use cups and containers to reusable options, your café can…

Save money with dine-in dishware

A one-time initial investment in durable plates, cups, and silverware at your café can result in significant cost savings over time by protecting your business against rising costs for single-use products and reducing the volume of your day-to-day disposal.

Reduce waste with bring-your-own

Public Health code now allows cafés to pour beverages into customer-provided cups. Making it easy for customers to bring their own cup makes it easy for them to make your café a regular and sustainable part of their day.

Simplify with reusables to go

A vendor provides reusables cups or other packaging with different payment models for customers, including apps with QR codes, apps with subscription, or up-front deposits. Cup washing can happen at the café or through an offsite service to make offering reusables easy.
