Less Than is a zero waste + refill shop in Richmond, Virginia, that offers sustainable alternatives to everyday goods that are healthy for you (simple, natural ingredients) and our planet (eco-friendly or package-free packaging). Our goals are to help you find sustainable alternatives to common goods, to help you think about the life cycle of an item before you buy, to encourage a shift away from single-use items and plastics, and to help you create less waste than before.
Our refill station offers many refillable products including shampoo + conditioner, hand + dish soap, face + body lotion, candle refills and much, much more! We encourage you to bring your own containers to fill up on your chosen products. We also carry many zero waste essentials at all of our stores.
In addition to our location in Richmond, we have three other refill shops in Norfolk, Hampton, and Virginia Beach. If you can’t make it to one of our stores, be sure to check us out online as we ship most of our products across the United States.
