When littered or improperly disposed of, single-use shopping bags foul the environment, are hazardous to wildlife, and become unsightly indiscriminate pollution.

Around the world, governments are making efforts to implement bans on single-use shopping bags at many types of merchants such as grocery stores, drugstores and hardware stores.  Other retailers may be required to levy a tax on their customers for every plastic shopping bag used.

Growing awareness of the ecological impact of single-use shopping bags have lead many retailers to offer customers reusable shopping bags to purchase.  This voluntary and eco-friendly response from consumers is an important initiative and one solution to control and reduce the use of plastic shopping bags.

Reusable shopping bags come in a variety of sizes and designs, but how much a bag can hold is less important than how much you can carry.  Most shoppers will begin to struggle with just two bags, not to mention that your hands are no longer free to handle items or your wallet.

The ECO KADDY adds a degree of freedom to shoppers.  The spacious 9-gallon carrier weighs only 3 lb and can be comfortably carried by its handle.  As you begin selecting items and placing them into the ECO KADDY, you may find that it is becoming a little heavy.  Placing the ECO KADDY on the floor and extending its telescopic handle allows you to roll the carrier on its wheels.  Now you can continue shopping in comfort, all the while keeping your hands free to peruse items and read labels.

At the checkout, simply unload the ECO KADDY of your purchases for the cashier, and replace them back into the carrier after paying.  Roll the ECO KADDY to the parking lot or transit stop.  Once home, roll the ECO KADDY inside and empty it of your purchases.  Unlike reusable shopping bags that tend to be forgotten or misplaced, the ECO KADDY can be placed at your front door or back into your car ready for your next shopping trip.
