What if a customer wants to keep their own lid?Updated a year ago
While in order to maintain good health and safety standards, we recommend that both cup and lid are swapped in each interaction between a customer and a HuskeeSwap cafe, there is often no food safety regulation requiring this.
In fact, one of the discovered outcomes of COVID restrictions (and people's commitment to eliminating single-use) was the development of the 'contactless pour', where customers do keep their lid. This may be a habit or preference of some of your customers.

It is up to you how you want to best approach Swapping with your customers. Here are some things to consider:
- Keeping cups and lids together ensures they are subject to 'wearing' equally
- Having customers hang on to lids may introduce unnecessary added variation and complexity to your workflow
- It is always good to check your local health regulations for any specific policies on the use of reusable containers
