We usually do all of these ...These are great tips! We usually do all of these things. Another thing we do is--because we typically don't bring our own soap and therefore use the hotel's bar soap--we bring home the remainder of the bar and put it in our <a href="https://articles.earthlingshandbook.org/2016/10/27/make-a-soap-saver/" rel="nofollow">soap saver</a>.<br /><br />Not getting your room cleaned during your stay is not just about reusing your linens. It also saves electricity because they're not vacuuming, and reduces waste of cleaning products they would use to clean surfaces that are already clean enough! If you see the cleaning people in the hall, tell them that your room does not need cleaning so they can check it off their list instead of repeatedly going back to see if your Do Not Disturb sign is off. Skipping cleaning is also a kindness to them=more rest time during their shift!<br /><br />Another way to reduce waste in a hotel stay is to make sure that when you leave your room, you turn off all the lights and set the thermostat to a temperature where the heat/AC won't run much.Becca @ The Earthling's Handbookhttp://articles.earthlingshandbook.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5882959808811184859.post-33647405023668627832017-04-26T09:21:40.692-05:002017-04-26T09:21:40.692-05:00There can be so much waste created.

I usually bring a lot of my own healthy food staples, silverware, thermos and stainless steel water bottles to hotels so I am able to make my own breakfast in the room. I also carry my own natural toiletries. Thank you for sharing these wise and wonderful ways to prevent waste when staying in a hotel at the Healthy Happy Green and Natural Party Blog Hop.

I take my own plastic free toiletries and leave the plastic wrapped plastic cups where they are. Luckily the food is served on real plates but I often take my own anyway. #WasteLessWednesday A Green and Rosie Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02501989987736281707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5882959808811184859.post-68283463337331290992017-04-10T06:31:32.583-05:002017-04-10T06:31:32.583-05:00Wow!

If you can make it in a hotel room while traveling, certainly I can make it at home! You've inspired me.

We don't travel a lot, my love and I, but (in answer to your question) when we do, I take along homemade granola and yogurt for breakfast in the morning, so we can avoid all that waste and fatty food in the complimentary breakfast buffet. If I'm going to be gone several days, I'll usually take a small thermos, a liquid heating coil (the kind you put in a cup) and keep a little of the yogurt in a "mother" jar. Then I can heat the milk to lukewarm right in the thermos, add the mother, stir it up and cap tightly. Twelve hours later, I've got a new batch of yogurt. It's amazing how simple it is!Kathryn Gracehttps://yayyayskitchen.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5882959808811184859.post-40048401516946543182017-04-07T07:41:32.983-05:002017-04-07T07:41:32.983-05:00Sounds like you guys have a picnic in your hotel r...Sounds like you guys have a picnic in your hotel room!
