Bulk / Zero Waste

Minimize waste, reduce environmental impact

In store in Bedford & Dartmouth · Same-day delivery in Halifax · Shipped across Canada · Free shipping over $80

Our bulk and zero-waste department is about buying what you need and skipping the packaging. Luminate Co is home to Atlantic Canada's largest all-organic bulk station: nuts, seeds, dried fruit, grains, flours, spices and loose-leaf tea. Around it you'll find refills of soap, shampoo and cleaners, shampoo and conditioner bars, dish blocks and brushes, and reusable swaps.

Bring a clean container, weigh it empty, then fill it with as much or as little as you like; we take the container's weight off at checkout. Our guide to bulk shopping at Luminate explains how it works, and shampoo and conditioner bars and eco-friendly cleaning products have guides of their own.

Brands to know: Notice Hair Co shampoo bars from Vancouver, Upfront Cosmetics, made by hand in Nackawic, New Brunswick, No Tox Life dish blocks, and Tootsi, which fills many of our bins with nuts and dried fruit.

Questions we get a lot

Can I bring my own containers?

Yes. Bring any clean container, weigh it empty, then fill it. We subtract the container's weight at checkout, so you only pay for what's inside.

Are the bulk bins organic?

Yes. Our bulk station is all organic, at both stores.

Can I refill soaps and cleaners?

Yes. Bring a clean bottle to refill dish soap, laundry detergent, cleaners, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Ask us which containers suit each product before filling.

Is bulk food safe for allergies?

Bulk bins are scooped in an open area, so cross-contact can happen. If allergies or gluten matter for you, choose packaged products with the right label, or ask us about a specific item.
