There is an excessive amount of garbage heading for the landfill everyday that can be prevented. Shaving companies are a major contributor by creating razor blades that go dull faster than they should.

Consumers are forced to buy new blades every four or five shaves, sending an average of 65,000 tons of waste razor blades and packaging to the landfill. The average family will use 100 blades per year, but this can be reduced down to 5 by making some simple changes.
