How can shopping at Retail Bins reduce landfill waste? 

Retail Bins Amazon Returns Overstock Store

On average, 30% of products purchased are returned.  In 2022 alone, American returned more than $800 billion worth of merchandise, according to the National Retail Federation.  If these items are not resold through the original retailer or sold through liquidation; the items end up in our landfills.  In fact, returns in the United States generate 16m metric tons of carbon emissions during their reverse journey and up to 9.5 billion pounds of landfill waste each year.   

​

At Retail Bins, our commitment lies in contributing to the reduction of landfill waste. We achieve this by acquiring returned, overstock, and shelved items, offering them to the public at significantly reduced rates. By diverting these items from ending up in the trash, we ensure they find new homes with those who shop our store.
