Who is Refill Town?
Zero Waste Shop
Discover our family-run zero-waste shop, offering packaging-free staple food and eco-friendly household essentials. Shop sustainably and embrace low-waste lifestyle with us!
We pride ourselves on providing outstanding customer service and thrive on human interaction. Yes, we prefer to talk to people rather than electronic devices.
We want to promote shopping without the excess of single use plastic packaging. While we are new and many of you have not discovered us just yet, we have biodegradable paper bags for you, however we would like to encourage our customers to bring their own containers. Alternatively, you can purchase glass containers and PET bottles for your refills.
We stock loose food (without packaging), this includes allergens, namely nuts. If you have a severe nut allergy and cannot be around them, please be aware this may not be a suitable shop for you.
We have a great selection of nuts, pasta, rice, oats, flour, sugar, dry fruits, loose teas, coffee, herbs & spices, cleaning product and other household essentials. And of course a peanut butter machine!
Yes, we have fresh peanut butter! Our amazing peanut butter contains roasted peanuts. That is it! No additives, sweeteners, sugar nor salt. You only need to bring an empty container and you are good to go nuts!
What containers to bring?
We leave this up to you, however we strongly recommend something that is sealable to avoid spillage. You can recycle your old jam jar, take away container, old washing up bottle, spice jar, milk bottle, silicon bag, canvas bag or even a plastic bag. Every time you reuse a container, you help to break the cycle of generating new packaging. Give your existing containers new purpose and reuse them.
Fresh Peanut Butter
If you are a fan of peanut butter, you are going to love our freshly pressed peanut butter. Bring your own container or purchase one in the store and enjoy!
