KnoxFill — Local services in Knoxville

I was excited to see this place and support a local business. But then I realized they stopped accepting local makers years ago and haven't actually been a place to support new and emerging local suppliers for years. Yikes. Instead, they are reselling soap/detergent/etc. from their supplier Rustic Strength (in the Ozarks), Mama Suds (not local) and Plaine Products(not local), and Bulk Apothecary (cheap and sourced a lot from overseas and unethically) are then resold to you at an upcharge to market "locally made" to customers. Nope. Two stars for the small selection of actually local Knoxville made products shoved in the corner. There are plenty of makers who make all these selections by hand with small suppliers where this could truly be a local shop filled with only locally made items to enrich and support the community while further reducing the footprint of shipping and plastic waste by sourcing from local makers, herbs from local farmers, etc. but that doesn't make the bottom dollar appealing enough.

I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of variety available from scents of different soaps to other refills like cooking staples and other products to make your zero-waste goals even easier! I will absolutely be returning anytime I need something that is offered...

KnoxFill is awesome. It's a refill store where you can get all sorts of stuff without the plastic waste – cleaners, soaps, even spices! Plus, they've got coffee beans and loose leaf tea you can refill too, which is a major win. The stuff they carry is really good quality, and it feels good to be a little greener. The people who work there are super nice and always happy to help you out. It's easy to just bring your own containers and fill 'em up. If you're in Knoxville and want to cut down on plastic (and grab some great coffee or tea!), you gotta check out KnoxFill. It's a great...
