Green Gobbler ENZYMES for Grease Trap & Sewer

This product was recommended by Kathleen Fletcher from Kitty Baby Love

Unlike many drain cleaners, that contain toxic and corrosive chemicals that are bad for the environment and potentially for your health, Green Gobbler uses a specifically formulated enzyme solution designed to break down fats, oils, greases, starches, proteins, cellulose, sludge, and other food waste. The product isn’t just ‘green’, it is effective, too. Not only will it unblock your drains, pipes etc., and eliminate odors, but regular use also acts as a preventive measure, too. Colonies of waste-eating bacteria and enzymes will form in your pipes, preventing further build-up that may cause a blockage again.

Seventh Generation Glass Cleaner

This product was recommended by Jessica Samson from The Maids

One of my favorite brands when it comes to environmentally friendly cleaning product is Seventh Generation. Specifically their glass cleaner is my favorite. It is is perfect for cleaning glass, stainless steel, chrome, and shower glass doors and leaving them streak free. Each bottle is made from recycled materials and the entire bottle is also recyclable. The scent comes from essential oils and not only is this a natural way to scent the product, but it smells amazing! It is also hypoallergenic, and contains no artificial dyes or fragrances. I cannot recommend this product enough and it is such a great cleaning product and stacks up to all the non-sustainable products that it competes with!

Begley’s Plant-Based Pet Stain and Odor Remover Enzyme Cleaner Spray

This product was recommended by Anthony Turk from Begley’s Best

This line of eco-friendly cleaning and pet products created by Hollywood icon and environmentalist, ED BEGLEY, JR. benefits various non-profit organizations that help the planet and it’s inhabitants as chosen by the Begley Family Foundation. Begley believes environmentally conscious consumers shouldn’t be penalized with poorly performing products. That’s why every BEGLEY’S Earth Responsible Product is individually designed and tested to perform equal to or better than its corresponding non-green alternative. The active ingredients include plant based, sustainable and rapidly biodegradable. Beneficial botanical essential oils add a pleasant aroma-therapeutic scent. Of greatest importance is the safety of the household in which it is being used. This includes humans, animals and plants- and the health of our planet at large. In formulating the products Ed believes he has chosen the safest and most effective ingredients available on the market today. All of the ingredients are considered “All Natural” with the exception of the preservative (less than 1%) found in some of the BEGLEY’S cleaners.

Funk Off! Funk & Stain Destroyer

This product was recommended by Shannah Henderson from Henderson Public Relations

I highly recommend the Walton Wood Farm Funk Off! Funk & Stain Destroyer. Made with sustainable ingredients, this plant-based cleaner uses bio enzyme technology to eliminate and digest stains and odors, and prevents them, too! Its Spring Fresh scent quickly dissipates to a neutral, clean odor. It works on wine, vomit, blood, urine, feces, food, sports funk, armpit stains and odor, shoes, and more. Plant-based & Earth-friendly, this cleaner is vegetarian, cruelty-free, and free of SLS, Paraben & Dyes.

Dropps Laundry Detergent Pods

This product was recommended by Alex Varela from Dallas Maids of Frisco

I love green cleaning products, especially for laundry. Regular laundry detergents contaminate the ocean through microplastics. The brand Dropps has different cleaning products, and I like this one because with pods you use exactly what you need for detergent. Their formulas are mostly plant and mineral based, and they’re cruelty free and vegan. Besides, they use non-plastic packaging. This brand is actually partners with an ocean conservancy organization, which means they have taken their formula and packaging to the least possible contamination degree.

Cleancult Liquid Dish Soap

This product was recommended by Steve Evans from Memphis Maids

I love the brand Cleancult for many reasons. They are so transparent about their ingredient list, and they use plant-based cleaning agents (mostly coconut based surfactants). I also like their character as a brand, they offer something else than just being a “green brand” I like the milk-carton approach to their packaging. Even the cap is plant-based, and the carton is recyclable.
