Make Your Laundry Eco-Friendly

Here are tips to make laundry eco-friendly when you buy your laundry products.

One of the easiest ways to make your laundry more “green” is to switch from liquid detergent to powder.

Allow laundry to air dry on a clothesline rather than using your dryer.

Don’t use dryer sheets because many of them contain the same chemicals found in liquid fabric softeners.

“No phosphates” or “plant-based” tells you more about a product than saying it is “biodegradable.”
