11 Refillable Cleaning Brands
The Good Trade editors endorse products we’ve personally researched, tested, and genuinely love. Learn more about our methodology and business model here.
Our team has prioritized clean products in our homes for years — these are our favorite nontoxic cleaning brands that offer refills so you can easily stay sustainable.
What we spray, wipe, and clean with in our homes becomes part of what we take in every day. Each dish soap, all-purpose cleaner, laundry detergent, and toilet cleaner — really all of the cleaning products we use – has an impact. So, we love prioritizing nontoxic and sustainable cleaning products — especially ones that offer eco-friendly refill options. Beyond being good for the planet, it also helps us easily stick to our cleaning routine. 🧼
Refillable cleaning brands allow you to reuse the same bottles and containers over and over, significantly reducing plastic and water usage. Not to mention, buying refills is cheaper than buying products full-size. That’s especially true with the brands that offer concentrate options, where you mix their formula with the water in your own home. We love that it takes up less space, goes a long further for the amount of money you spend, and it never runs out!
All of these brands offer great refillable options made with nontoxic ingredients and sustainable materials in mind. We love that they’re reducing our plastic and water usage, and keeping our expenses low, all while using ingredients we’re confident in using around our families, pets, and guests.
Why should you consider sustainable and nontoxic cleaning products?
We use cleaning products in our homes every day. Whatever we’re spraying and scrubbing around stays in our home long after we’re done cleaning, lingering on surfaces and vaporizing into the air. Exposure to harmful chemicals can cause allergies, irritation, or worse. Not to mention, cleaning products with toxic chemicals can wreak havoc on aquatic life when rinsed down the drain. That’s why we’ve shifted to nontoxic cleaning products, gravitating toward cleaners that make our homes feel clean and keep our home and environment safe and healthy.
These nontoxic cleaning products also have refillable options to cover all areas of your home, from laundry to dishes to hand soap. It can be intimidating to choose a refillable cleaning brand, because, in theory, you’d stick with them forever! So we’ve done the hard work to spotlight our favorites so you can be confident when you buy that first glass bottle and the many refills to follow.

Blueland’s cleaning products come as a tablet. For cleaners like laundry detergent or toilet bowl cleaner, you just drop it right in, it mixes with the water that’s already there, and it dissolves into a powerful and effective nontoxic cleaner. For cleaners that need a bottle, like all-purpose spray or glass cleaner, you buy the bottle once, and refill it over and over with water and the dissolvable tablets. Whether you’re refilling the bottle or the cute tablet containers, Blueland sends refills in compostable paper packaging, eliminating plastic from the entire process. All of Blueland’s products are free of parabens, VOCs, ammonia, phthalates, chlorine, and bleach, and instead use clean plant and mineral-based ingredients to get a fresh clean. Blueland is a B Corp and Climate Neutral company founded by Sarah Paiji Yoo, who decided to start Blueland because she wanted a company that made cleaning products without the plastic packaging.

4. Branch Basics
Best For | Nontoxic cleaning concentrate
Sustainable materials | glass bottles
Prices starting at | $50 (for the concentrate)
The founders of Branch Basics wanted to remove toxic chemicals from the home and go back to the basics. So they developed a formula that’s plant and mineral-based, free of harmful preservatives, non-GMO, and fragrance-free. “The Concentrate” is their multi-purpose cleaning solution that can be mixed in various ways to make everything from laundry detergent to carpet cleaner. The plant and mineral-based formula is Made Safe, fragrance-free, biodegradable, and is made with organic chamomile and natural water softeners. The different bottles for each type of cleaner have lines to help you measure out exactly how much water and concentrate you need to add for the perfect mixture. And when it runs out? Just remix the concentrate and water again in the same bottle. Because the formula is so concentrated, it lasts a long time and can make several bottles of cleaning products!
Customer Review | “I love the product. The first day I received it I clean my whole house. I used to hate cleaning because after I finish cleaning, I get itchy, runny eyes, and nose and cough, but now no problem.” – Janet S. (Read more reviews.)

Prices starting at | $12
Sacha Dunn founded Common Good in 2011 after a trip to Australia, where she was reminded that refilling laundry bottles was the norm. It inspired her to start her own company where cleaning products could be refilled — but also were made from safe, nontoxic ingredients in bottles that were beautiful. The cleaning products from Common Good are made without sulfates, parabens, synthetic fragrances, and other harmful chemicals. And the plant-based formulas are infused with essential oils, made with a septic and graywater system-safe formula, and are 100% biodegradable. They have refillable options for their dish soap, hand soap, all-purpose cleaner, glass cleaner, laundry detergent, and more. The refill boxes are made from 65% post-consumer recycled cardboard with a reusable spigot. So you only have to buy the bottle once, and then you can reuse it over and over. And when the refill box itself is empty, you can send in the plastic liner as part of their closed-loop program, and they’ll take it back.
