I have a newborn and noticed we go through about 70 – 75 diapers per week. If you assume 4 cubic inches per diaper in the trash, multiplied by 70, thats 280 cubic inches of waste going into a landfill every week! Ruby’s provides an environmentally conscious alternative to conventional disposable diapers, and with improvements in the covers available, they are no less effective than the disposables, though take a few seconds longer per change. I am very pleased with this service, as they make it very convenient to use.
