The Useless Item You Purchase 150 Times a Year (and How to Stop Buying It)

For over 100 years, people have been purchasing an item that is completely purposeless, and they have purchased it hundreds of times, every single year. That useless purchase is the inner cardboard core of a toilet paper roll. We buy it because that’s how toilet paper is sold, and toilet paper is sold that way because it’s always been sold that way. Neither the seller nor the consumer have given much thought to the matter, and as a result, roughly 17 BILLION cardboard tubes are used in the United States alone, every single year.

Now that you know, what options do you have as a consumer? No worries, this is not a post about making your own toilet paper at home! Fortunately for us all, you can find Scott Tube-Free in your nearest store. Scott realized that it could reduce its environmental impact in a way that is so easy for the consumer, because the toilet paper rolls can maintain their shape just fine without that tube.  

Looking for a crazy easy way to lighten your environmental footprint? The average family uses 150 rolls per year, so by switching to Scott Tube-Free, you are keeping lots of tubes out of the landfills. And just imagine the impact we can all collectively have if we start saying no to those cardboard tubes! Here’s a (totally HILARIOUS) video done by a popular YouTube prankster that gives you a visual of how many tubes Americans go through in just 2 minutes. It’s wild!
