We are pleased to announce the start up of our nappy loan scheme.
This is the risk free way to try real nappies. The average new mum spends £150 on 15 reusable nappies if they aren't for you you will have wasted that money. If you loan them you would only have spent £30 (£50 if outside our laundry area) and not added to the landfill.
This option is ideal for those who want to use premium quality reusable nappies but who would like to try them for couple of months first without having to pay the large outlay.
Even if you stay with us you will still save money on average £100 over the 2 and a half years you baby is in nappies.
You can loan nappies in packs of either 15, 20 or 40.
Bamboo Nappies (Tots Bots or Bambinex)
Payment is monthly and is 50p per month per nappy.
We require a deposit of £6 per nappy which is fully refundable upon return of the nappy.
P&P
For people outside of our nappy laundry area, postage both ways is charged at £20 regardless of order size
Extras
Nappy Bins are included free for all orders
Wraps can be purchased at £5 each and these are yours to keep. You get 4 with the 15 pack, 5 with the 20 and 6 with the 40.
Liners are £3.50 for a roll of 100 and can only be ordered with the initial order or in bulk packs of 6 rolls for £25 inc P&P
Advantages
You can swap nappies for the next size up for a one off cost of £15
If they are not for you you get your deposit back and will not have wasted any money.
There is an option to buy the nappies you have borrowed after 1 year of use for £4 each.
Cost Comparisons
For an average baby renting 20 nappies for 2.5 years you would save £185 over buying them yourself.
Our Minimum Loan Period is 3 months.
Questions
Q. How much does it cost to launder the nappies?
On average 50p per wash and dry inclusive of wash powder.
Q. How many nappies will I need?
If you intend to wash every other day, we reccommend 15
If you intend to wash twice a week, we reccommend 20
if you want to wash once a week we would reccommend 40
Q.What is the best way to launder the nappies?
We use an eco wash powder called simply washing that is very effective and cheap too.
We advise washing at 60 to clean the nappies thoroughly, we wash at 70 though to disinfect the nappies to NHS standards.
Don't use fabric conditioner on the nappies as they will become less absorbant.
Tumble Drying helps keep the fibres fluffed up and makes them softer and slighly more absorbant but they can be line dried
