How to Choose the Right Compostable Food Containers
Match the size to your menu
Start with your best-selling dishes and pick pack sizes that match your portions. Too large a container costs more and presents badly; too small risks spills and poor reviews. Many compostable food containers come in multiple sizes, so sample one case before ordering bulk.
Choosing materials
Kraft and bagasse options work well for venues marketing sustainability, while plastic and foil remain the value choice for busy kitchens. Check heat resistance for hot food, grease-proofing for fried menus, and microwave-safety if customers reheat at home. UK single-use plastic rules restrict some lines — our range is fully compliant.
Cost per serve, not per case
Compare products on cost per serve rather than case price. A slightly dearer case with 25% more units is often cheaper per meal. Our bulk tiers reduce the per-unit price as you add cases, and part-box options let newer businesses try lines without overstocking.
Storage and shelf life
Packaging take up shelf space — plan a realistic weekly volume rather than bulk you cannot rack. Case dimensions are listed on product pages so you can work out storage in advance. Use older cases first and keep paper-based lines dry to protect them.
Bulk Buying & Trade Accounts
Each line carries automatic quantity discounts — prices step down as volume rises. Canterbury businesses with regular volume can get in touch for standing-order pricing, and our current deals page lists short-dated and promotional stock. Every order comes with a full VAT invoice for your records.
Delivery to Canterbury
We ship from Enfield, London Monday to Friday. Deliveries to Canterbury typically arrive on a next-working-day service once dispatched and every order is tracked. Free delivery applies over the free delivery threshold shown at checkout, and lighter orders carry a flat delivery charge. Check delivery details for cut-off times and options.
Consistency matters in food service: running out of compostable food containers on a busy night loses orders. Easy Supply holds weeks of stock on everyday lines so Canterbury kitchens can reorder confidently week after week.
Packaging is marketing: smart, purpose-made packaging keeps food at its best and signals quality on Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat. Standardising your compostable food containers is a low-cost ways to improve ratings in Canterbury's competitive takeaway market.
Prices are live on easysupply.co.uk — no request-a-quote forms, no surprises. Add cases to the cart, see quantity breaks apply automatically, and check out in minutes any time.
Eco credentials matter for Canterbury customers: councils and delivery platforms increasingly favour recyclable and compostable formats. Switching even part of your range to greener materials can go straight on your menu and social feeds — and our range prices those options for working margins.
First time ordering wholesale? Begin with a case each of your core items, measure how long they last, then move to a regular reorder. Many Canterbury businesses end up with a predictable cycle that spreads cost and storage manageable.
Uber Eats, Deliveroo and Just Eat raised the bar: food now travels further and waits longer before it is opened. Heat retention and leak resistance make the difference between five-star and one-star reviews — so choosing delivery-grade packaging pays for itself in Canterbury's app-driven market.
