Sustainably Clean: Tale of a Toilet

This swap was an easy one! They have toilet bowl cleaning pods at our local refill store, Great Lakes Refill. You can either package the pods in a paper bag or in your own container. I bring my own container. If you don’t have a local refill store then check out the company Blueland. I’ve heard good things about their eco-friendly cleaning products!

Let’s Talk About The Typical Cleaner

I am so happy with this swap. I never really liked the typical toilet bowl cleaner that comes in a bottle. It’s obviously full of serious chemicals… and who is going to rinse that out for proper recycling? I always felt like I should dispose of it through the special chemical disposal drop offs. I do not need that hassle. 

Try this package free, earth friendly cleaning option! It is so worth the swap. Let me know what you use to clean your toilet (we’re all friends here!) via contact page.
