Sustainability Tips for Laundry

  • Wash only full loads of laundry to save water, time, and money. 
  • Wash all your laundry in cold water. 
  • Choose clothing with natural fibers to avoid microplastics in our rivers and other water systems.
  • Select sustainable laundry brands and buy in bulk where possible.
  • Air dry your clothing when feasible.
