Layer upon layer of bubble wrap and those pesky mailer packs that are so hard to open—intentionally so as to secure your package—add up to the pile of trash we generate every day. But because it has been a way of life since quarantine kicked in, people have come up with significant steps to reduce this kind of waste. There’s the invention of those paper equivalents of bubble wrap, and now a dedicated shipping solution that vows to use only compostable packaging: Fifth Express.
“We want to make sure that we help out the planet by using eco-friendly packaging to lessen the consumption of harmful plastics that pollute our land,” the company vision read. Just like your usual go-to courier, booking with Fifth Express is easy. Currently operating only around Metro Manila, shipping packages cost from P79 to P120 inclusive of the compostable mailer and shipping fee, depending on the size of the item, and with discounts for bulk shipments.
