NI disposable nappy waste headache. Disposable diapers are a scourge. They are not healthy for the infant and they are horrible for the environment. Disposable diapers make up a significant percentage of the waste stream and they add biological waste, which landfills were never meant to process. I used cloth diapers on my kids and a diaper service. They never had diaper rash and the service was even more convenient than disposables. We never had to buy diapers, they were delivered to us every week and they took the dirty ones away. From my calculations the service was also cheaper than washing them yourself and cheaper than buying disposables. (Remember that you have to count detergent and hot water if you do them yourself.) 12:46:13 PM
