Looking for some sustainable shopping in O-Town? The best refill and zero waste stores in Orlando are here to help.

Best known as a vacation destination, Orlando is famous for Magic Kingdom, Mickey Mouse, giant gators, and golfing.

What many don’t realize is that “The City Beautiful” is also a burgeoning hub for wellness, sustainable living, and thrift stores.

Perhaps it’s not the first city you think of when you hear the word “eco-friendly”—especially considering Magic Kingdom alone disposes of 80,000 pounds of trash every single day!

Despite its trash-happy theme parks, Orlando is actively working to become a zero waste city and eliminate solid waste to landfills by 2040.

Green Works Orlando is a thriving city initiative to become one of “the most environmentally friendly, socially equitable, and economically vibrant cities in America”.

With 75 million tourists per year, reducing waste, improving local food systems, and using cleaner energy has never been more important.

Next time you find yourself popping into Disney World to feel the magic, how about first grabbing some organically magic bulk snacks to ward off hunger and pack in more theme park rides?

With these zero waste and bulk food stores, Orlando lets you have a positive impact on the most visited city in America.
