Plastic-free swaps we canāt live without: Cleaning Edition
Our goal is to help reduce unnecessary plastic waste that our households produce every year. These are simple swaps to help you reach your plastic-free goals.
Which ones are your favourite?
Toilet tabs: Just drop one in the toilet bowl and let it fizz away for a few minutes. Free from harsh chemicals, these still reduce the amount of scrubbing and appearance of staining at the water line. You wonāt believe how well these little tabs work.
We are so surprised at how much we love these cleaning cloths. Sponge cloths are an easy swap for paper towels but are so much more. They are very absorbent to clean up spills, can be washed and reused over 200 times, and are compostable when you are finished with them. One cloth can replace 17 rolls of paper towel, saving you lots of money.
Our favourite maker of home cleaning products is bare. cleaning essentials . Presented in beautiful, refillable glass bottles, each product is a winner for effectiveness, clean scent, and natural ingredients. These products can make you look forward to cleaning! Our favourite is the peppermint scented window and glass cleaner.
Cleaning is always easier with a good scrub brush. Investing in quality means your plastic-free choices will last longer, saving you more money overall.
Our final favourite is dryer balls. These natural fibre wonders have many benefits including:
Non-toxic drying, quiet tumbling
Reducing wrinkles and static cling
Softening and fluffing fabrics
Use up to 1000 loads
100% compostable at end of use
