Life is messy, but your cleaning supplies shouldn’t be. Our all-natural refillable cleaning concentrate is truly all-purpose and will replace all of those pesky plastic bottles of cleaners cluttering under your sink. Use it in any room - from counters to mirrors to floors and even hard-wood dusting - with no sticky residue or streaks left behind.

Plus, you can finally stop holding your breath while you clean, since the light citrus essential oils will leave your home smelling naturally fresh without irritating sensitive skin and noses.

One 4-ounce bottle of this concentrate will make a whole gallon of non-toxic, multi-purpose household cleaner, and when the glass bottle’s empty, just send it back to us to sanitize and refill - all at no cost to you.

🌎 You care about the planet. So do we.

Look. I get it. It’s HARD to be an EcoWarrior. Someone who cares about the planet and wants the most sustainable products available - from the ingredients to the packaging to the way that product gets to your hands.

It seems like everywhere we turn, someone, somewhere, is greenwashing us.

But our superpower at A Drop in the Ocean is sorting through the BS, calling it out, and making sure our products are the absolute most sustainable and truly zero waste products we can find.

So on top of all the things we mentioned above about what makes our all-purpose cleaner concentrate so sustainable, here’s a few other things you should know:

  • We’re actually practicing what we preach behind the scenes. In 2022, we saved all of our trash for four months, and wrote a whole blog post on it. The tl;dr version is this: in four months, we only produced two pounds of trash. Everything from the packaging our products come in down to the Sharpie we use to write “Fragile” on your box is zero waste to its core.
  • We’re an online-only zero waste store - which is highly intentional. It may seem counter-intuitive, but online shopping is actually more sustainable than in-person. I’m a data nerd at heart and I love diving into the research, and there are countless studies that have shown that online shopping is the most sustainable way to get your everyday essentials. Don’t believe me? Check out our whole blog post on the sustainability of online shopping.
  • We ship ugly boxes. Your order from A Drop in the Ocean is not going to arrive in a pretty, branded box. It’s gonna show up in a reused tea box, or a donated Amazon box, or maybe even an inside-out Girl Scout Cookies box. All of our shipping materials are always 100% plastic-free and reused as much as possible, with curbside-recyclable paper tape and a post-consumer recycled paper shipping label. It won’t be pretty, but it will be zero waste.

Got more questions about our zero waste products or our practices behind the scenes? Just send us an email! I’m always happy to chat all things eco.

I stumbled across A Drop in the Ocean on my quest to reduce our family's plastic use. I have a small family and live in a rural area with only a few big box stores and zero plastic recycling options. Finding plastic free items locally can be a challenge. I was thrilled to find a shop in my home state that would reuse returned glass and aluminum bottles. I'm a repeat customer as the products are excellent and the shop owner makes it super simple to return our used bottles by mail.

Great all around cleaner!

This product is absolutely fantastic! I can clean the counters with no worries if chemicals and it does the job. Amazed how so little of the concentration is needed for a while spray bottle. I also use this to clean my grill.

Holy Grail Cleaning Item

I've been using this for years now, and it is better than any conventional project I've come across. Here are a few things this puppy can do: - Wipe down counters with no sticky residue or streaks - Soften stuck on/dried out food messes. Spray it on sticky/stuck on messes, let it sit, then wipe. With a toddler who loves throwing food on the floor, this is a godsend! - Ant defense. Once a year, my kitchen gets invaded by sugar ants. This stuff will **** the ants on contact (I think it's the combo of vinegar and whatever oil is in it), and obliterates their scent trails. I'll spray it preventatively around windows and places the ants are coming in; they seem to hate the smell of it and will not cross. Seriously, I love this stuff.

LOVE

I love a product that can be used in any room. I love that it comes in a small cute bottle and that it’s concentrate. Saves so much space rather than having a bunch of specialty cleaners. I use this spray to clean the bathroom, the kitchen, I spray a little into a rag for dusting. It really is an all purpose product and it smells amazing! It had a light, not over powering, citrus clean smell.
