Change starts with you and me. Fast fashion and the quick and dirty of ordering online are filling up our landfills fast. By taking the extra time to fix what you already own, recycle as many materials as possible, source locally, ethically, environmentally, and second hand, you’re doing the planet a solid. Use these resources to be the change. And then spread the word!

RECYCLE WITH ARTIFACT
Drop off clean and dry, screw on bottle caps of all sizes and colors, as well as cosmetic and toiletry containers such as foundation and chapstick tubes, compact cases, and mini lotion bottles. Artifact pays to ship these recyclables to Terracycle where they are turned into new products. Visit Terracycle.com to learn more how you can recycle further at home and in your neighborhood.

When shopping second hand also be sure to source locally from your neighbors. Tools like Craigslist, OfferUp, and even garage sales are great resources!
