“Survey for a Zero Waste Market in NW DC:
Hi Neighbors,
We are interested in opening a zero waste store in NW DC and are conducting market research in support of the optimal location and the product mix that reflects the needs of the local customers.
This store will be the area’s first dedicated zero waste market. Our idea is to offer a shopping experience similar to the bulk aisle at Mom’s Organic or Whole Foods, but the entire store will be dedicated to this concept.
We will stock package-less, food items for your pantry (non-perishable and non-refrigerated items), cleaning supplies for under your kitchen sink, skin care products for your bathroom, soap and shampoo for your shower shelf and other curated consumer goods that support a healthy, zero waste lifestyle lifestyle.
All products will be offered free of packaging – bring your own containers, or put a deposit on store containers. We’re excited to help our neighborhood reduce waste by offering wholesome, organic and carefully curated goods in a zero-waste store format.
We thank you for your time and welcome any thoughts and suggestions.
If interested in this concept, please follow us on Instagram @greendistrictnow.
Best,
Will & Marisa”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
