To reduce waste we reuse packaging materials and we encourage recipients to reuse or recycle packaging when possible. Our commitment to the environment and reducing our "footprint" is important to Worldgoods and thus we do not manufacture or purchase new materials for shipping.

Instead, we reuse already-existing packaging materials and ship using recycled or carrier-provided eco-friendly boxes (please visit USPS.com for environmental comittment of the U.S. Postal Service). A Better Footprint / Worldgoods Fair Trade is following the principles set forth by other green companies and sound research on the most effective and eco-friendly shipping method at this time by reducing, reusing, and recycling. Thank you for your support.

If you know of a company that discards new or gently used packaging material and would like to help in diverting these materials from our landfills, please contact us.
