The bottles on the wall rule
Yup. I travel for work and much prefer to pump as much as I want vs a little squidge from a tiny bottle. The thing I think every time though: some asshole is gonna load one of these up with Nair one day and end up on the news.
I actually kind of like that idea. My shower at home has a soap and shampoo station with three refillable units and I hate it. When I redo the bathroom, that goes. However last hotel I was in had a sleek modern rack, with a piece that attaches to the bottle, so it looks like the bottles are on the wall. Since I don’t have enough space for bottles anyway, that would be a step up
They’re nice, but it sucks when you’re in the shower and find out one of them is empty! The people making up the rooms aren’t always great at checking them.
These are becoming rare in my experience, they’re mostly refillable/refilled bottles.
How exactly does it reduce plastic waste? They need to ban single use plastic bags and beverage bottles.

By eliminating a major source of plastic waste in the hospitality industry.
+1 for eliminating some plastic. -100 for aiming at the tiniest target anyone could think of.

Every step counts.

You couldn’t be more wrong. Plastic shampoo, soap, and conditioner bottles represent 30% of hotels’ plastic waste. Marriott’s US properties alone eliminated 1.7 million tons of plastic waste by moving away from mini plastic bottles, across only 1,000 properties. [Source]

I too prefer that boogershampoo. No way people ain’t messing with it.
So they will need to provide reusable dispensers maybe? Like the cleaning lady refills the dispenser weekly or something like that?
