A focus on the best product means we don’t always need to use flashy packaging for online orders.
We believe in minimising waste throughout the entire shopping experience. When you order online from us, you can opt to not receive the flashy marketing packaging you might see on store shelves. Those eye-catching displays use a lot of cardboard, and while they can be recycled, they also take up valuable space in your curbside recycling bin and cost the environment.
“Ship Without Container” is another Bison Hill endeavour alongside our UGLY boxes to create less waste in our activities and in your life. Instead, we focus on using only the essential packaging needed to ensure your order arrives safely. This might include recycled parcel packaging or materials, all chosen for their environmental friendliness.
Sometimes you want the marketing packaging as you are buying from us as a gift, so we only remove the packaging if you want us to. Lots of our customers buy as gifts.
But Wait, Won’t I Miss Out on Product Information?
Absolutely not! We understand the importance of knowing what you’re getting. That’s why we’ve replaced bulky, pre-printed marketing packaging with product information for single page product details. Every Bison Hill order comes with a one-page product description printed at the same time as the postage slip. This minimises paper waste while still providing you with all the details you need about your fantastic product received.
Why Ship Without Container?
There are several compelling reasons to embrace this approach:
- Reduced Carbon Footprint: Cardboard boxes add weight to packages, which means more fuel is needed to transport them. By eliminating unnecessary packaging, you’re directly contributing to a lower carbon footprint for your shipment.
- Less Waste: Millions of tons of cardboard waste accumulate every year. Shipping without a container and using minimal, eco-friendly packaging minimises this burden, leading to a more sustainable future.
- Cost Savings: Less packaging often translates to lower shipping costs for both you and Bison Hill.
Is Shipping Without a Container Safe?
Absolutely! We’ve invested in innovative packaging solutions that ensure your order arrives safely without the bulk.
