GO Box is a new way to conveniently and safely reduce the unnecessary waste associated with single-use, disposable to-go containers.

If you are a food cart customer, you’ve probably considered the problem of disposable containers associated with your to-go lunch. In fact, the food carts in downtown Portland use roughly 60,000 disposable containers every month – a small truckload! Nearly all end up in the landfill. Even the compostable ones.*

GO Box uses containers made of BPA-free, dishwasher-safe #5 plastic and will be recycled at the end of their life.

You can eat your lunch and love the planet too!

* What if my disposable containers are compostable you ask? They work okay when they’re actually composted, but when put in the trash, they break down creating methane gas, a greenhouse gas — 20 times more potent than carbon dioxide –that contributes to global warming.
