Tired of bulky plastic bottles taking up your trash + our city landfills? So is Mackenzie Tapley — owner of Frequency Fillery, a startup offering plastic-free everyday essentials in upcycled packaging.
Tapley said she has been keeping up with the Refillery Collective movement while also being involved locally with green|spaces + the city’s Climate Action Plan committee, leading her to address Tennessee’s plastic waste policies.
“It doesn’t have to be expensive to shop sustainably,” Tapley said. “Having access to the products that are plastic-free gives you the choice to make a more sustainable decision.”
How it works
- Head to the refill station at Burlaep Print & Press
- Bring your own container or snag one of the upcycled packages available for free + for purchase
- Use the scale to tare the weight of the container
- Pick your product — shampoo, conditioner, lotion, sunscreen + bug spray
- Fill, weigh + pay based on quantity
Tapley said she has hopes to expand Frequency Fillery within the community — stay connected + learn more about each product via Instagram.
