How to Store Leftovers Without Cling Wrap

Tired of using cling wrap or disposable containers for your leftovers? There’s a better way—and it’s kinder to the planet. If you’re looking to cut down on single-use plastics in your kitchen, it’s time to “Put A Lid On It.”

At The Living Co., we believe in sustainable solutions that don’t sacrifice convenience. That’s why we’ve partnered with Put A Lid On It, an innovative Australian brand making beautiful, functional serveware with lids made from 100% recycled plastic. Here’s how you can store your leftovers without plastic wrap, cling film or disposable containers.

1. Serve It, Store It, Reheat It—All in One

One of the simplest ways to avoid plastic? Skip the transfer altogether. Our Put A Lid On It serveware is designed to go straight from the dinner table to the fridge. With snug-fitting lids made from recycled plastic, you can cover your dish in seconds—no extra containers or wraps needed.

Bonus: It looks stylish enough for serving at the table, so no need to repack leftovers after dinner.

2. Choose Recycled & Reusable Materials

Every bowl and platter in the Put A Lid On It range is crafted from 100% recycled plastic, keeping waste out of landfills and giving materials a second life. By switching to reusable serveware with lids, you’re not only reducing waste—you’re actively supporting the circular economy.

Did you know? Australians throw away over 100,000 tonnes of plastic packaging each year. Small swaps like this make a big difference.

3. Keep It Fresh Without Cling Wrap

Say goodbye to battling with sticky plastic film. Whether you’re covering leftover salads, roasted veggies or last night’s pasta bake, the secure lids in this collection help keep food fresh, flavourful and spill-proof.

The Put a Lid on It collection includes different sizes and styles so you can find the perfect fit for your household’s needs.

4. Store Smarter, Waste Less

By using containers designed for both serving and storing, you’ll find yourself wasting less food and using fewer single-use items. Plus, fewer dishes to wash = a win in our books.

Not only is this better for the planet, but it’s better for your budget too.
