Ecostore refills

Save money and reduce waste with our easy ecostore refill service. Grab and go with our swap-a-bottle or bulk container options, or bring in your own containers for product refills on the spot.

Swap-a-bottle is a container exchange service where you drop off clean empty ecostore containers and buy pre-filled ecostore products.

Our Store is also a collection point for the ecostore Plastic Return Programme. We accept all empty and rinsed ecostore containers for Aotearoa-based recycling, including the 5L and 20L ones. Containers in good condition are reused for swap-a-bottle.
