Deliveries today took a bit of turn!

An unwell young hedgehog was found in a garden and I was asked if I could help. Sometimes the Hedgie van gets mistaken for Hedgehog Rescue!

I was refilling at the house next door and, with the wonderful lady who had been keeping the hedgehog safe, called The South Essex Wildlife Hospital who advised taking the little hog to their hospital for care.

Thank you to all the customers who understand why their orders were not fulfilled today. A sick animal always takes priority!

Thank you for looking after the little fellow. Hoping he recovers. ❤️

Looking forward to seeing you there tomorrow.

If you have too many refills to carry, leave your empties with us and we will refill and deliver back to you.

If you would like to order in bulk, order your 5 litres and we will deliver free of charge.

Alternatively, just come and say hello! Nothing we like better than a chat about all things eco.

Miniml's closed loop system in action.

Our empties are off on their journey back to Miniml HQ to be washed and refilled, saving at least 80 plastic bottles going into landfill.

If you have some empty bottles at home, hang on to them and head over to our website. Choose what to refill them with from a wide range of great products. All BioD and Miniml products can be poured into your existing bottles. Let's fight the plastic waste together.

If you don't have any spare bottles, we carry a stock of pre-used, sanitized bottles of all shapes and sizes. Free of charge.

Better for the environment, better for the bank balance.

Full money back guarantee

5L quantities available on request.

*We do not refill bottles that are obviously drink bottles. This can be a hazard for children.

We have been making .birtwhistle cream cleaner.

Delphis cream cleaner is excellent. However the bottle is not refillable which has made it difficult for The Happy Hedgehog Family to continue to stock and we have been looking for alternatives.

This cream cleaner was really quick, and satisfying, to make. We stock bicarb of soda. It also uses eco washing up liquid. We stock Delphis, BioD and Miniml so plenty of choice of brands and fragrances! All are UK based, independent and ethical companies.

The cream cleaner also requires vegetable glycerine. Would you like The Happy Hedgehog to stock this too? Let us know so we have all your favourites on the van.

Nancy Birtwhistle's books have so many tips and recipes to help us on our green journey, and they don't cost the earth.
