Sustainable Pantry

Must Haves for your kitchen Are you mindful of the products you consume? Do you only purchase from brands that ethically source their ingredients but want to do more?

The zero-waste movement has gained popularity with many businesses and individuals adapting to this lifestyle.

Switching out single use items and your disposable goods will not only aid in sustainable living but will be more eco friendly! Reusing is a good waste management method since it reduces the need for natural resources such as timber, petroleum and other resources. This not only saves energy, but helps conserve the environment. Here are a few essentials for your sustainable kitchen!

Mesh Bags Instead of bringing home those clear plastic bags from the produce section, why not switch to a mesh bag that is reusable and breathable for all your fresh fruits and vegetables! These bags can be stored in the refrigerator and even double as grocery bags.

Reusable Storage Bags

Silpat Sheets

Finding an alternative to zip locs will significantly reduce the amount of trash that you dispose of. Rather than using plastic bags, switching to silicone is a great option since it’s non-toxic, easy to clean and can handle hot and cold temperatures. Silicone bags also last much longer!

This one is particularly for those that enjoy baking! Silpat is a perfect replacement for parchment paper. The mats are made from food grade silicone and are non-stick so there’s no use for oil or cooking sprays. They are also durable and can withstand up to a temperature of 480 Fahrenheit.

Mason Jars and Glass Food Storage Yes plastic containers may be convenient, but making the swap from plastic to glass containers is overall better for the environment. Glass is non-porous and doesn’t absorb any germs which is overall better for your health. Also, an added bonus is its durability! With glass there’s no worry of staining and cracking.

Dishcloths and Napkins The U.S uses more than 13 billion pounds of paper towels each year, making a ton of paper towels requires up to 17 trees.

Instead of going through roll after roll of paper towels to clean your kitchen messes, opt for dish cloths and napkins that are eco friendly and an aesthetically pleasing option. Plus, this reduces the time used taking out the trash.

Source: Ready Made

Reusable Straws Many restaurants are banning the use of plastic straws and so should you! Plastic straws cause pollution and have particularly affected our oceans harming marine life and ecosystems. You can swap the plastic and choose between stainless steel, glass and bamboo. Stainless steel, however, is the most recommended due to its durability and aesthetically pleasing design.

Tips To Move Across The Country With Your Family

You need to be careful when it comes to moving across the country with a family. You’re going to want to take this a step at a time, so everything goes well for you. Here, you’re going to get the tips you need to start moving as soon as possible to your new home.

BOXES & PACKING Moving is something you need to pack for, and when you pack, it has to be done right. First, you’re going to need to figure out where you’re going to get boxes from.

One idea is to go to a local grocery store to ask them if they can give you a few boxes. Many stores go through tons of boxes every day, and they recycle them so they will provide them with a way to save themselves a bit of work. You may also be able to find moving boxes in bulk that you can purchase online, so shop around if that’s how you’re going to get what you need.

When packing, you’re going to want to make sure you label all of your boxes in the right manner. You don’t want to rush through and put things that are fragile in boxes that are not marked as such, or else you won’t be careful with whatever you have in the boxes. Even if a company is packing for you, tell them you want everything labeled. Generally, professionals will label boxes, but it doesn’t hurt to remind them to do so if they aren’t for some reason.

CHOOSING MOVING COMPANY Many moving companies can help you move if you don’t want to do all of your work. If you’re going to hire people to help, you have to make sure that they are charging a price that is worth it. Make sure you let them know that you’re doing a cross country move so they can give you a more accurate price quote. Also, a guide to cross country moving tips can help you to find the best and reliable professional movers for your move. Don’t just go with the first company you find because it pays to shop around and see who has the best

prices and avoid it because they charge too much.

Don’t just hire a moving service based on price, however, you also need to find out if they will be worth your money to work with based on the quality of service they provide. If you want to learn more about the quality of service you’re going to get, you’re going to want to look up reviews on a company to get the information you need. When looking at reviews, please make sure they are recent, so they are likely to be still true of the company if anything has changed with them recently.

any service, including moving.

DOING THE RESEARCH When moving on your own without help, you’re going to want to know if you can return your moving truck to a place in or around the city you’re moving into. Don’t get stuck in a moving truck that you can’t return without driving it far away. Many moving truck companies operate out of most major cities, and some are in smaller areas. When working with a moving truck service, make sure that you read reviews

TECH FOR THE MOVE If you’re moving far away with kids, they’re going to need something to do in your vehicle as you travel to your next home.

For instance, you can let them use a tablet to play a few games you downloaded before moving, and that should keep them busy for a while. But, if you go with electronics, make sure you have a way to recharge them when running out of battery power. There are many excellent vehicle chargers, so look into that to have things charging while driving your vehicle.

SIGNING UP FOR EMAILS There are a lot of options when it comes to moving; you’re just going to want to make sure that you know if a company has specials or not. Sometimes, if you go to the website of someone that does moving work, you can get a deal on their services.

For some websites, you’re going to want to make it a point to sign up for the email marketing list they have in place, so you know when they have some deals. Don’t think that you have to pay full price because sometimes you can find deals on

to only work with companies worth the investment.

Now you’re more aware of what you have to do when you want to move across the country with a family. Don’t rush this because you don’t want to make costly mistakes. Just use what you learned here, and in the end, you’ll do just fine.
