The average American family washes about 300 loads of laundry per year—that’s roughly six detergent jugs if each holds enough detergent for 50 loads. And that’s just laundry for one family. Add the spray cleaners, dish soap, and hand soap bottles for millions of households, and the pile of empty cleaning bottles grows fast.
Even when you recycle, not every empty cleaning bottle may make it through the system. Only about 29% of plastic bottles and jars actually get recycled. The rest of the cleaning product bottles are lost to contamination, sorting issues, or limited processing space, meaning most end up in landfills.
So, instead of throwing away another plastic cleaning bottle every month or so, Truly Free Home’s reusable cleaning bottles and refill systems make it easy for you to turn a wasteful cycle into a sustainable practice.
We designed our refillable cleaning product system to make sustainable living easier for all families. Whether you’re buying Truly Free Home Laundry Wash, Truly Free Home Everyday Cleaner, Truly Free Home Aloe Hand Soap, or any of our other non-toxic cleaning products, your first order automatically includes a durable reusable cleaning bottle made from PET plastic.
PET, or polyethylene terephthalate, is the same material safely used for food and beverage packaging. We chose it for our refillable jugs and bottles because it’s:
Once your refillable cleaning bottle is empty, you’ll only need to order refill packets to restock your favorite non-toxic cleaning products—either as a one-time purchase or on a flexible subscription that you can pause, skip, or cancel anytime.
Here’s what to expect from Truly Free Home refill pouches:
It’s that easy. And because the cleaning product refill system eliminates the need for new replacement containers with every order, it’s already helped us prevent nearly 16 million plastic containers from ever being made. That’s millions of plastic cleaning bottles kept out of recycling centers and landfills.
Together, we’re proving that small choices—like refilling cleaning products instead of replacing cleaning product bottles—can make a big collective impact.
With Truly Free Home’s non-toxic cleaning products and companion refill system, you’re reducing your family’s plastic waste and creating a cleaner, safer space for the people you love. One refill at a time, it’s a simple and meaningful act of care for your home, your family, and the planet.
