      I actually kind of like that idea. My shower at home has a soap and shampoo station with three refillable units and I hate it. When I redo the bathroom, that goes. However last hotel I was in had a sleek modern rack, with a piece that attaches to the bottle, so it looks like the bottles are on the wall. Since I don’t have enough space for bottles anyway, that would be a step up

      Yup. I travel for work and much prefer to pump as much as I want vs a little squidge from a tiny bottle. The thing I think every time though: some asshole is gonna load one of these up with Nair one day and end up on the news.

    +1 for eliminating some plastic. -100 for aiming at the tiniest target anyone could think of.

      1. Every step counts.

      2. You couldn’t be more wrong. Plastic shampoo, soap, and conditioner bottles represent 30% of hotels’ plastic waste. Marriott’s US properties alone eliminated 1.7 million tons of plastic waste by moving away from mini plastic bottles, across only 1,000 properties. [Source]

    These are becoming rare in my experience, they’re mostly refillable/refilled bottles.

      How exactly does it reduce plastic waste? They need to ban single use plastic bags and beverage bottles.
