Top Green Laundry Picks

The following laundry detergents mostly have unscented versions, which cuts back on allergies and irritation, and are at least 2 x concentrated, which cuts back on packaging and shipping fuel. They are also free of all or most of the “Lose It” ingredients listed on my home page at GreenerPenny.com, and in my new book, Do One Green Thing. Other pluses, such as comparable pricing to conventional brands ($), having no residues of 1, 4 dioxane* (N1, N4) in recent Organic Consumers Association tests, ultra-concentrated formulas (2x, 3x) or independent third-party eco seals, are noted.

Remember, for the sake of the planet and your budget, wash in cold water as much as you can! And hang dry. Thanks!
