This is a great store to find in your town. First of all it is a very niche place. Filling what shouldn't be a niche need but let's be honest we all know it is. They sell zero waste products. What does that mean? Well I'm no expert and man I'm probably going to get some if this wrong. We went a couple weeks ago and I was just reflecting on how I had not written. A review because I've been so busy writing poetry and fiction but more on that later. Yeah, so turns out they have these big containers of things like soap, shampoo, detergent, housecleaning products and basically you bring in your own glass bottle or you purchase a bottle one time, and then instead of continuing to buy plastic bottles full of housecleaning products you just come back to this store and refill them. I could honestly walk here it's probably around a mile from my house and then I would be buying this stuff and not driving so my carbon footprint would be nothing. I feel like we've stopped talking about carbon footprints. We should probably start talking about that again. Also just lovely housewares. We bought these little towels to use instead of paper towels. I was skeptical but they've worked great. And I have stopped buying so many rolls of paper towels which I feel good about. Especially since I'm so bad about recycling. I'm sorry I just think it's a scam. We bought a really nice cutting board. I feel like we bought something else. The people who worked there were delightful. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Lots of nice houseware items. I feel like my reviews are usually funnier than this one but I have a sore throat this morning and we have company and I woke up and I'm like oh no I hope I don't have Covid because a month or so ago we had Covid. Home test said no Covid but you know how these ADHD brains can spiral. But I did want to mention my book which is more specifically talked about in my bio. Please buy a copy it's funnier than this review. Or read some other reviews most are hilarious. And if you're wondering if it's appropriate for me to bring up my book here just check out Mark's review of this place where he brings up his 3 year old twins. It's like we get it Mark you have 3 year old twins. Which of course does sound adorable. And the hyjinx. Just think of the hijinx. Wow I spelled hijynx 3 different ways and I'm getting no autocorrect suggestions but apparently all of them are wrong. Anyways check out this adorable store. As adorable as Mark's kids. read more

One word is amazing!! My family and I drove 45-50 minutes to Sustainable Haus Mercantile, & I must say it was WORTH IT!!!! Emily and Casey were so helpful, kind, sweet, & knowledgeable about all the products in the store. They were even able to convince my husband to try a new laundry detergent. They have a 10% discount running for Earth Day which was a hit. I was able to buy a few additional items. This is a great place! We will be back!! read more

Sustainable Haus Mercantile - Kitchen Supplies Near Me - Summit, New Jersey

Quirky and eclectic best describes this spot. Situated in the shadow of Overlook Hospital, try not to drive by or you'll miss it. Great vibe! read more

I'm so glad I found this place, it's divine! When I first came here, I was so overwhelmed with how many products they carry I think I spent a good thirty minutes wandering around talking to Jenn. The staff here are so friendly, and it feels so good to support a local woman owned business. The owner works hard to command a social media presence that has helped me save money and switch to sustainable products and ways of living! Over the last few months I've stopped in multiple times, and have been slowly getting rid of single use items and plastic from my home, and curing my codependency with Amazon lol. Love love love this store! read more

I was so thankful to have found sustainable haus. The service was incredible and very personal. I accidentally ordered a soap tray that didn't match my soap size and the vendor reached out to correct my mistake at no charge. I was blown away by the extra effort! read more

Went to Sustainable Haus Mercantile for the first time this month and I'm in love! One of my new year's resolutions was to be more eco friendly and sustainable and after researching more about it i can across this store and I'm so glad I did. As soon as we entered we were greeted by a super friendly worker who, after asking if it was our first time there, told us more about the store and how things work. This was perfected as it was our first time at this kind of store and were a little nervous to figure out how it all worked. After finding the products, surprised by how many cool things were, that we were looking to get we went to check out at register. The employee behind the desk was super nice and even gave us a few recommendations that we may like to try out next time. Will definitely be coming back next time i'm in the area! read more

Love the products they carry. The owner is very knowledgeable about zero waste and every product in the store. I found out about this place from the Summit Farmers Market. They have refillable containers and beauty products to fill them - like bulk shampoo and conditioner. I also really love they they have vintage glass bowls and such. I got a great Pyrex bowl. read more

Sustainable Haus is such an amazing store! They provide so many options to refill from shampoos & conditioners to detergents and soap! Their monthly breakfast has educated me on many topics, I highly recommend it to everyone and its free! Janette and her team really go above and beyond to offer us safer and better options for personal care and household products! If you haven't stopped by then don't wait, this store is guaranteed to change your life! read more

This is my new favorite store. Let's start with their masks. They hand make each mask and offer a ton of sizes. The kids mask for my 3 year old twins perfectly! They are completely adjustable and the adjusters on the elastic ear loops don't come off when you wash them. The whole family has multiple masks from Sustainable Haus. We started bringing our own containers to fill up on grapefruit soap and other household essentials. The staff is very knowledgeable and super friendly. I've always loved them at the farmers market, but the selection the store is amazing. Highly highly recommend , 5 Stars read more
