With Earth Day just around the corner, now is the perfect time to kick our sustainability efforts into high gear. Our resident cleaning expert, Melissa Maker, is passionate about protecting our planet, so we're here to share her five simple yet impactful ways you can make a difference with your cleaning routine. Let's dive in!
Clean Green
Swap out harsh chemical cleaners for environmentally friendly alternatives, or better yet, DIY solutions. Look for products labeled as non-toxic, biodegradable, and plant-based. Not only are these cleaners safer for your family and pets, but they also minimize the release of harmful chemicals into the air and waterways. Plus, many eco-friendly cleaning solutions are just as effective as their chemical-laden counterparts! Opt for bulk purchases of hand and dish soap and decant into smaller reusable pumps on your kitchen and bathroom counters. You save $ by buying in bulk, and reduce the need to buy multiple plastic bottles and then throw them away when you're finished with what’s inside.
