Eco-Friendly Cleaning Tips

Opt for eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products that are safe for your family, pets, and the planet. Look for products that are free from harsh chemicals and synthetic fragrances, as these can improve indoor air quality and reduce the amount of harmful substances that reach our Oceans. Choosing natural ingredients is a powerful way to help protect water quality and marine life!

Consider using green cleaning techniques such as durable microfiber cloths and HEPA-filter vacuums. These methods not only capture dirt and allergens effectively but also use less water and cleaning solution, helping to conserve water and reduce waste. Old towels and kitchen towels can also be repurposed for cleaning, offering a more sustainable alternative. It’s an easy way to maintain a clean home while minimizing your environmental footprint.

Whenever possible, choose products with recyclable, biodegradable, or reusable packaging. This reduces plastic waste that could end up in landfills or our Oceans. By making smarter choices about packaging, you can help decrease plastic pollution and contribute to a cleaner planet.

Help reduce your carbon footprint by using energy-efficient cleaning appliances and LED lights. Small changes like these not only save energy but also lower your utility bills, all while contributing to a cleaner environment.

Support local businesses by purchasing sustainably sourced cleaning products and tools. Not only does this help reduce transportation emissions, but it also promotes a more sustainable local economy. Plus, products made from responsible sources often come with a smaller environmental impact. This is why we are proud to work only with Australian suppliers, prioritizing Australian-made cleaning products and equipment.

Recycling is key to reducing waste and preserving natural resources. Set up recycling stations at home and encourage responsible disposal of items that can’t be reused. By recycling used cleaning containers and packaging, you’re helping reduce the strain on landfills and our Oceans.

Look for cleaning products labeled as grey water safe. These are designed to be safe for reuse in irrigation systems, which helps reduce the strain on water treatment facilities and supports healthier water systems. By choosing grey water safe options, you’re helping preserve the Oceans and marine life by ensuring cleaner water runoff. At Sage Cleaning Co, we make sure all our products are greywater-safe.
