Reusable Dishware Rental Program

In February of 2024, rePurpose launched a reusable dishware rental program. Please fill out our request form here.

The drop off program is a benefit of membership in rePurpose, and members receive one free reusable dishware rental per year for up to 30 participants. For larger events or non-members, there is a suggested donation that helps our organization sustain this program. We will provide an estimate of the cost for your event. Not a member yet? Become a member today! Note: This program is different from our Zero Waste Event Program.

As of December 2024, we have lent dishware to more than 20 events for nearly 3500 people. Items are made available based on a pay it forward concept. Dishes are clean and ready to serve, and you are expected to return them clean and ready for the next member to use. Please note, we are not a formal party rental company!

Here’s a list of items we have have on hand. We’ll be adding more items as we are able to acquire and with enough interest from members.

  • Dinner plates

  • Small plates

  • Small bowls 10 oz Pyrex glass bowls

  • Soup bowls

  • Coffee mugs

  • Short rocks glasses

  • Stainless steel cups

  • Wine glasses

  • Forks

  • Knives

  • Spoons

  • Serving utensils

  • Cocktail napkins

  • Dinner napkins

  • Baskets

  • Drink dispensers

  • Punch bowl with matching glasses

The reusable dishware rental program can make a significant difference in reducing waste at your birthday party, board meeting, volunteer appreciation event, holiday party, etc. While this program doesn’t replace our full service Zero Waste Event program, we encourage you to also recycle and compost as much as possible using your existing practices.
