ZeroWasteStore.com’s Best Laundry Sheets
Price Range: $20
Part of their ZWS Essentials range, ZeroWasteStore.com’s five-ingredient detergent sheets are an essential piece of zero waste kit—since we unfortunately can’t give up the chore of laundry!
You can choose between a subtle Fresh Linen scent or a Fragrance-Free. Both are hypoallergenic and dermatologist-tested, making them one of the best laundry detergent sheets for sensitive skin.
Free from parabens, phthalates, and phosphates, these plant-based sheets are also vegan, cruelty-free, palm oil free, and work in all machines, including high-efficiency washers. They do contain PVA, and while the “fragrance” is hypoallergenic, we’re not sure if it’s synthetic or not. We recommend opting for the Fragrance-Free variety and, if you still want a little scent boost, adding your own essential oils to it before tossing it in the washer.
The plastic-free packaging is home-compostable, and the sheets come in packs of 60. Use one laundry detergent sheet per regular-sized load, which we have found cleans and freshens everything, with no real negatives to speak of.
