Going Green For Free (literally)

We're not here to take your waste and leave you to it; we're also here to help you EARN more money! Are you charging a Green Fee? If you're not sure, let's do the maths...

Green Fee's - The numbers don't lie.

Our members charge their clients a £1 Green Fee on every visit to cover the cost of their salon waste recycling, which means that you're cost-neutral at worst but mostly its a profit for you.

If you're concerned about what your clients may think, head to the Green Fee page here and hear from a fellow salon owner or hairdresser about their experience with Green Fees.

Let's do some math with a full-price Returns Box.

One Returns Box costs from £160 and holds an average of 550 clients' worth of waste. That's about seven bags for metals and hair.

550 clients paying a £1 green fee = £550. You don't need a PHD in math to notice that you'd be collecting double the Green Fees compared to what you need to buy the box from us. This means you profit over £300 per box. You can use the extra money to fund other green changes in your salon, like water-saving tapes or towels, or keep it for yourself. 

Ready to set up your Green Fee?

We can set up a Green Fee with most salon software to make it hassle-free for you to start collecting a Green Fee.
