Laundry Detergent
Liquid laundry detergent can be replaced by a more environmentally friendly variety, for example, laundry detergent sheets and plastic free laundry tablets. Liquid detergents can also be purchased in refillable containers to reduce plastic use and shipping costs. The Floyd Refillery stocks two makes of refillable laundry detergent, in both scented and unscented options. There also plastic free laundry tablets from Blue Land and two brands of laundry sheets.

Additional Information
The carbon footprint for shipping volumes of liquid detergent is high. Several companies produce laundry detergent sheets or laundry tablets which reduce pollution by reducing shipping weights. Sunella (made in the US) and Me Mother Earth laundry sheets, as well as other laundering options, are available at the Floyd Refillery. Blue Land tablets (made in the US) are also available at the Refillery. The Harvest Moon store carries laundry sheets and there are many brands available online.
