Zero Waste Father’s Day Gift Ideas

Make a positive impact on Dad this year and go sustainable with some of these great ideas.

 

Ask Dad What They Would Like First

First and foremost, asking if there is anything that Dad wants, or needs is a great idea and it can make present buying 100% easier. Because knowing that the item will be used and needed, creates less waste overall.

 

Quality Time

Something that requires no materials, and no waste is quality time.

A lunch or dinner date with his favourite meal or a trip to his favourite activity is a fantastic way to connect on Father’s Day and create beautiful memories. Perhaps taking photos along the way to send Dad at a later date to remember the day can make it extra special and memorable. 

 

DIY

DIY can be a nice way of making something personal for Dad if you are good with DIY. A handmade picture frame, DIY beard oil or homemade BBQ spice mix with ingredients from your local bulk bin store are great DIY gifts. 

 

Consumable Gifts

Consumable gifts that are packaging-free are great because they are enjoyed and then once they are used or eaten, they leave no trace. Great ideas for consumable items are handmade cupcakes, brownies, coconut rough, snacks and sweet items from bulk bin places such as Refill Nation or personal care consumables such as soaps, deodorant, or bath soaks. Pop the food items in a jar or wrap them in fabric or a reusable container to keep them sustainable. 

 

Second-Hand

Second-hand items from thrift shops can be a fantastic way of purchasing something amazing at a fraction of the cost. Beautiful finds can be found such as recipe books, novels, ties, and whiskey glasses can be found at most second-hand stores. Plus you might also find something amazing for yourself!

 

Reusables

Reusable coffee cups, bags, drink bottles, food flask, and some cool reusable cutlery are fantastic reusable items that can be invested in to start Dad on a more sustainable lifestyle. Choose something you think he would use and love. 

 

Wrapping

Do you want to go the extra mile on your Zero Waste Father’s Day gift? Why not wrap your present in reusable fabric wrap or reuse a box or bag?
