15 Easy Zero Waste Swaps To Start Your More Sustainable Lifestyle

One of our top zero waste swaps starts in the laundry room. Not only can zero waste laundry detergent save money, it can remove compounds like parabens, phosphates, and harmful dyes from your home.

Blueland is the embodiment of sustainability, and their Laundry Starter Set doesn’t miss either. All you have to do is place one or two of the dry-form tablets into a load, and boom—stains and dirt are gone.

The tablets don’t contain any parabens, phosphates, ammonia, VOCs, chlorine bleach, or phthalates. They’re also vegan, gluten-free, soy-free, nut-free, and shipped in compostable or recyclable packaging.

VOYA will help you ditch liquid soap completely with their Laundry Detergent Strips.

Biodegradable, hypoallergenic, cruelty-free, plant-based ingredients, and zero phosphates, SLS, SLES, fragrances, and dyes—these are easily one of the best sustainable swaps for the home.

Unless you’re air drying, you’ll need a replacement for dryer sheets, like reusable dryer balls. Organic wool dryer balls replace fabric softeners and dryer sheets, reducing drying time by absorbing excess moisture.
