For those of us at The Container Store, organizing and cleaning go hand-in-hand. You can organize an area of your home to your heart's content, but if that same area is dusty and dirty, it's not going to make much difference in how your space looks and feels. It would be, as the old saying goes, "as useful as putting a screen door on a submarine."
As we've increased the amount of sustainably-sourced storage and organization products we offer our customers, we've also begun offering more sustainable and health-conscious cleaning products to go along with them. This month we introduced a whole bunch of them, and you can check out some of our favorites below!
L'AVANT Collective Cleaning Products
L'AVANT Collective's goal is "to merge our modern home interiors and styles with the products we use on a daily basis in a sustainable and plant-based way." We've added several of their amazing cruelty-free cleaning products to our assortment, and these include their Hand Soap, Dish Soap, Multipurpose Cleaner, and Biodegradable Cleaning Wipes.
Papaya Reusable Paper Towels
Papaya Reusable Paper Towels are a great way to reduce waste in your home. In fact, one Papaya sheet can take the place of up to 17 rolls of single-use paper towels! Available in four fun patterns and made from plant-based cellulose and natural cotton, these towels can be easily cleaned in the washing machine or dishwasher and re-used again and again.
Aunt Fannie's Cleaning Vinegar
Vinegar's cleaning power is well-known, which makes it a favorite for many who wish to avoid harsh chemicals. Aunt Fannie's Cleaning Vinegar combines the strength of vinegar with clean-smelling lemon peel essential oil to form an unbeatable combination. Rated "A" by the Environmental Working Group, it is non-toxic and safe to use around kids and pets. (Our other recommendations from Aunt Fannie include their Extra Strength Vinegar and Carpet Refresher for Pets.)
Koala Eco Cleaners
Koala Eco's products "harness the wild power of nature and merge it with science, marrying powerful Australian botanicals and plant-derived ingredients with research-backed evidence." We now carry Koala Eco's Dish Soap, Hand Wash, Floor Cleaner, and Multi-Purpose Kitchen Cleaner. These cleaners are made with essential oils like peppermint and mandarin, and are free of sulphates, phosphates, chlorine, and dyes.
Thymes Cleaners
Our Thymes Wood Cleaner, Countertop Cleaner, and Dish Soap feature a wonderful-smelling mandarin coriander fragrance and are made from non-toxic plant-based ingredients. Non-irritating and never tested on animals, these products are the perfect kitchen cleaning companions.
e-Cloth Cleaning Cloths
e-Cloth Bathroom Cleaning Cloths and Shower Cleaning Cloths make bathroom cleaning easier than ever--just add water! Made from a specially-engineered polyester and polyamide microfiber, they allow you to remove grime, soap scum, limescale and 99% of bacteria from bathroom surfaces without the use of additional cleaners. Best of all, everything is backed by the E-Cloth promise that your cleaning cloths will stand up through one year or 100 washes!
EO Essential Oils Hand Cream
Once the cleaning is done, it's important to give your hands some self-care. Featuring ingredients derived from nature, our EO Essential Oils Hand Cream helps keep your hands nourished and soft. It has a unique blend of botanical butters and oils--including mango seed, jojoba, coconut--along with ceramides and hyaluronic acid for deep hydration.
