From year to year, as a society, we become more aware of the importance of preserving nature, natural resources and all the beauties that nature provides. Various industries, and we as individuals, are contributing day by day to pollution and other growing environmental problems. We all know how little change and the contribution of each of us means.
By renting your accommodation, you can greatly and consciously contribute to the preservation of nature and we bring you some tips below.
- Use biodegradable and / or durable products
The first and most important step is to use durable products in your accommodation. That way you don’t create unnecessary waste. If you use a lot of disposable items you can consider biodegradable products or an even better option – use durable products.

Highlight the instructions for using the tank and mark what it refers to. Instruct your guests how to separate waste and where to dispose it. If you use bags inside the container, make sure its biodegradable ones.
- Use environmentally friendly lighting fixtures
If your apartment is energy inefficient, it means that you are consuming a lot of energy unnecessarily, and at the same time it means high electricity bills. Consider environmentally friendly lighting fixtures that consume less electricity. energy, heat the rooms less and have a longer service life.

Conventional cleaning products contain many harmful substances, both for nature and for you!
