Earth Breeze is a laundry detergent company with a mission to remove plastic waste from the environment, one laundry load at a time.
Load the clothes into your washer, drop one sheet on top (two is you have seriously messy kids and a BIG wash tub) and turn on the machine. If you have a detergent dispenser, just fold that sheet up and slide it in. Easy peasy; they dissolve instantly. Need a little more detergent, but not too much, tear the sheet in half. Have a small load? Again just tear the sheet in half. No problems. They clean great and offer a fragrance free option, which I love.
We began using these to reduce plastic waste. Originally we ordered another brand from a large online retail outlet, but the sheets were delivered in a plastic mailer. Oi vey! Not what I was going for. So, I did a bit of homework, found this company, and set myself up on a recurring delivery schedule that fit the needs of my family. You can also order a 'one time' delivery. They mail the detergent sheets to my house via USPS in a paper mailer. The envelope is recyclable, and the laundry detergent packaging is compostable!
Each order placed includes a donation of free laundry sheets to charity. I chose a Veterans organization, but there is a drop down menu that allows you to chose from a few categories. Your purchase also helps fund ocean clean up and tree planting and they are a carbon neutral business.
Their customer service department is very responsive. On my first order, those pesky computers changed my address (same street & number in a very similarly named city - happens a lot). The order confirmation showed the change, I contacted them immediately, and in a very short time, I received a corrected order confirmation with a lovely personal note.
Over the holidays we had several family members staying with us. My usual amount of laundry detergent was quickly depleted. I went on line to order an additional package, and was able to reset my delivery schedule making the next shipment process the very next day! Perfect!
I love that I'm not lugging heavy plastic containers of liquid detergent (which are mostly water any how) from the grocery store. I love that they deliver to my door in recyclable material, that I can easily move my delivery schedule forward if needed and their delightful customer service team. And of course, the most important point, the detergent works great.
Change is hard, but this is a no brainer. Especially if you have a busy life, a bad back, limited space for storing your laundry supplies, or are trying to be a good steward of the planet. This is a win-win-win. read more
