Make a paw-sitive impact with every snip and clip

The Sustainable Salons program services pet groomers of all shapes and sizes across AU & NZ.

Sustainable Salons is a resource recovery service that diverts 95% of salon resources from landfill and transforms those resources into a force for good, while also aiming to benefit the community and your grooming business's bottom line. 

Guess what!? We’ve just launched a new groomer-specific membership.

This membership includes all the existing benefits, like on-demand courier pick-ups, team training materials, and placement on our salon directory.

The difference? It's a subscription tailored to your business's recycling needs, meaning you pay for what you use.

"Our customers care about our impact"

Our customers and our staff care deeply about the future and the impact we have on our communities. Having a sustainable partnership with Sustainable Salons means that we can minimise our stores footprint. We are inspired by innovation that enables us to collect dog hair from our salons to assist in oil clean-up projects in addition to recycling plastics, paper and metals. Every pooch contributes too!

FAQs

Yes, we have three differing sizes available for our bins to suit businesses of all shapes & sizes. Our team will work with you to ensure that our bins cater to your space.

The pet groomer membership has a one-time set-up fee and an ongoing weekly membership fee which starts at $75/week (incl. GST). The weekly fee is based on how much recycling you need based on your business size.

The full set-up fee ($348 incl. GST) gets you in-salon separation bins, return bags and a merch kit to promote your new membership. 

The lite set-up fee ($148 incl. GST) gets you stickers for your bins you already have, return bags and a merch kit to promote your new membership. 

Over the last 10 years, our 1,500+ Sustainable Salons members have shown that the average amount of recyclables generated by a pet groomer is about 0.2L (about the size of a slim soda can). Our friendly team will help you work out the best plan for your size business based on the amount of waste you produce. 

We accept clean, dry pet hair from the body and legs. We are unable to repurpose fur that is matted, dirty, has fleas or poo. 

You can change your membership at any time. If you need to recycle more, we can increase your membership, and if you don't need to recycle as much, we can reduce it.

We currently service metro & regional locations all across Australia and New Zealand. If you’re unsure whether Sustainable Salons is available in your area, chat with our team.
