Reviews of Shop WithOut Packaging

Amazing range of eco friendly products and loose foods. Bring your old jars/containers and fill them up! As well as staples like rice n pasta etc look out for yummy treats like Medjool dates, parsnip crisps and salad 4-seed toppings. Cleaning products are at the back of the shop. Very friendly staff who will help you work out how to shop without packaging!

This place is awesome. It has so many options for buying food stuffs without any packaging. Everything from pasta to rice to oats and spices. It’s also extremely simple: You go in with your jars, tubs, bags etc the staff will tare them off on the scales. Write on them how heavy they are and that will be taken off once you’ve decided what to fill them with. They also have a jar and bottle drop so if you don’t have a jar with you then you can pick up a (free!) jar to take your produce home. They also do a wide range of cleaning products and home items. It’s really worth dropping in as the products they do are constantly growing.

Finally! I have been looking for a shop like this last year, when I started looking into a less wasteful lifestyle, but couldn’t find one that would be close enough to home. I went to check it out today and loved it!! They have everything you need, pantry, cleaning, bath etc. Loads of products and great prices. It is actually cheaper than buying stuff in packaging!

This was my first zero waste shop visit . I had my own containers but wasn't sure what the process was for buying things. The young lady at the counter was super helpful and showed me how to use the dispensers. Both ladies answered questions I had about the wax sheets and tips for what to do with my plastic bags I had at home. They had a wide selection of food and cleaning products and sold jars if you didn't have any. Really enjoyed my experience and will be back! Thanks :)

Small but mighty shop! They have everything you could need from oats to beans to dried fruit to fresh organic veg to hand sanitizer to laundry liquid to sustainable sponges. Everything! All for much cheaper than the supermarket. The staff are so kind and helpful. If you’re short on time you can drop your containers off, tell them how much you want of everything and pick back up later. Win for you, win for the environment, win for our community.

This is my new favourite shop ever. I thought package free shopping would be expensive, time consuming and not the place to get quality products. I was very wrong. I have never bought spices so fresh and vibrant, I have been introduced to a whole host of beans and lentils. I am not in love with barley. The things you can do with it. At the moment it is only 17p per 100gm. It is time consuming because you don't just throw a pack in the shopping trolley you need to fill your own jars or bags. This is a beautiful way of shopping. You can take time to decide what you want. How much you need and where you food is coming from. As for price. So far I have been five time and each and every time I am surprised at how much I have saved. It's not because you buy less it is actually less expensive. It is also far better for the environment. The SWOP is a wonderful place to be, gossip and share the excitement of environmental and sustainability issues.

I rarely feel moved enough to write reviews but.. I love this shop! organic, unfiltered, sustainable and fair trade products, huge range of products, you can even buy shampoo and conditioner, handsoap, laundry soap etc. No plastic packaging WHATSOEVER and if you forget your own tupperware or jars, there are boxes of donated jars you can use. Friendly, knowledge staff. I wish there were more of these places! I've started on a plastic Free Journey this year, and am so happy I've found this shop

Nicely stocked, banana bread/those little muffins are so good ☺️

Love this indie shop. Great selection of sustainable bottles etc, food, and cleaning products. I'm always amazed at what they manage to pack into such a small shop. Friendly and helpful staff. Well worth a visit (take some containers with you!)

D. B.

Lovely local business to shop without waste. Great quality items, most about the same price as big shops, some a bit cheaper, some a bit pricier but all seem to be better quality. Really amazing spices. Will say that their stock is a bit inconsistent- just because it's online or advertised in the window doesn't mean they have it! But they are next to a Sainsbury's so if they're missing an essential you can always pop in there after. Very friendly and helpful staff.

P. S.

This shop has lots of options for eco friendly shopping, from refills of vinegar, olive oil, shampoo, moisturiser etc to fruit and veg, useful things for the household to reduce waste. Friendly and helpful too.

M. A.

Amazing!! It's been a long time looking for a place like this!! Organic, zero waste advocate or just want to buy at a low price,this is a must visit place

Greatly enjoyed our visit to SWOP recently. We were able to buy a large variety of dried beans, pulses and grains as well as many other useful products. Sustainable stores often have a reputation for being expensive, however I was very impressed with their prices and it has allowed us to make ethical decisions that we previously thought were not really accessible to us due to cost. The layout is pretty soothing, so visiting the shop is an enjoyable experience, and let's not lie, it's pretty fun to dispense your own beans even if you are a grown adult. Being able to pick the exact quantities you want is incredibly convenient, and it feels great knowing that you've stocked up the cupboards without resorting to excess plastic use. It also encourages you to buy re-usable jars, and having a cupboard full of glass jars is super cute. Staff are friendly & helpful! I sometimes feel a little intimidated to go into smaller stores, but here that was no issue. A very approachable place. Can't wait to go back as soon as it's safe to again (written at the time of the outbreak).

I have been wanting to visit for ages as I follow on Instagram and I wasn't disappointed. A great range and clearly lots of consideration behind all aspects of the range. Alongside all the usual goods I found some natural cleaning sponges and am a complete covert!

L. M.

My go to for cleaning products, shampoo, hand wash, shower gel etc. Plus. I fill my store cupboard with dried goods, spices, baking products and loose leaf tea. Friendly service, well stocked store. Our household waste is vastly reduced.

S. A.

I just popped into this lovely little store and purchased some Earl Grey Loose Leaf tea. The ladies behind the counter were very helpful! Your range is wonderful. I hope you'll stock more blends of loose leaf tea such as fruit infusions and various blends of black tea! At least I found somewhere local that stocks one of my favourite teas. I can even reuse the jar I brought today! Thanks again for stocking my favourite teas! I'll be a regular for sure!

Great sustainable alternative to sainburys, tesco etc. Shop without packaging lives up to its name, although they have glass jars, paper bags, egg boxes etc available which have been donated by customers. Lots of choice too. Lovely and helpful staff.

S. D.

Was very happy to discover this wonderful no packaging shop with (for its size) a big range of cleaning products (household and personal) to refill your containers. There is also a good variety of dried goods. Just buy however much you need! Fresh eggs! São Tomé chocolate! Very friendly and helpful staff. I will be back.

Just moved to Eltham and was looking for a local place where I could get my refills. Thankfully, this is a short bus ride away. Really good selection of stuff, including things I haven't seen in similar shops like micellar water and face wash. The majority of their cleaning products are SESI, which is closed loop recycling and they also sell a variety of glass and aluminium containers, as well as providing paper bags and jars for free if you forget to bring your own. Love that they sell single eggs as I can never get through a box of 6 before they go off. Yes, you will pay a lot more for stuff than you would in the supermarket but if you are interested in supporting local shops and reducing your use of plastic and waste generally then I would highly recommend a visit here.

I found it quite expensive, bought some body wash and rice and it came to nearly £10. It was the body wash which was surprisingly expensive considering the large bottles used as the refill are only £50 for 5L or less when on sale..and they’re charging 1.16 per 100ml

M. X.

We previously used to visit another packaging-free shop so were very pleased to discover this one which is much closer for us to get to. We also found that the selection here is very good, smaller containers but more variety in products offered.

C. K.

Love this shop. Great place to save plastic waste by refilling all your bottles & tubs. The staff are great & the shop has so many brilliant things for a plastic free life.

E. C.

A great shop! Staff are really friendly and helpful and the product range is good and increasing all the time. Products are good value for the quality, and it's great to be able to help the environment. So glad this shop has opened here!

G. W.

Lovely staff. Great range, really useful that they have the oat milk dispenser too

L. S.

Lovely little shop with everything you can dream of to make your home, kitchen, bathroom and yourself super planet friendly ♻️

T. R.

Great first visit to this plastic-free shop. Friendly and helpful staff, big selection of goods. Looking forward to coming back soon.

E. L.

Absolutely wonderful addition to Lee Green, package free shopping made really easy. Friendly owners and staff. Much better quality and price than the Sainsbury's opposite!

K. B.

Fantastic shop!!! Great products brilliant service. Got myself dry ingredients shopping for whole week and pay £18 (for a family of 6)!!!! This is the only way for me now 🙌🙌🙌.

N. G.

Great selection of organic foods and groceries sold by weight or volume. Better for you and better for the world. Amazing choices and variety. Friendly and helpful staff.
