- 16oz Natural Laundry Detergent (Eucalyptus or Rosewood)
- Set of 3 or 6 Wool Dryer Balls

Laundry Detergent: Castile Soap (Coconut Oil, Distilled Water, Sodium Hydroxide), Sodium Bicarbonate, Sodium Tetraborate, Sodium Carbonate, Pure Essential Oils

To Use
Laundry Detergent: Add 1 tablespoon to your laundry load for regular machines, or a 1/2 tablespoon for high-efficiency machines.
Dryer Balls: Toss into your dryer with your laundry! They'll do the rest of the work.
Packaging + End of Life
The dryer balls will either be naked or packaged in a cardboard box, which can be recycled with curbside paper recycling or home composted. The dryer balls should last you many years to come, but someday when they fall apart they can be home composted.
The laundry detergent is packaged in a glass jar with a black plastic lid or metal lid, which can be returned to us and reused. When you're running low, order a "Refill" jar of detergent. We'll send you a new jar, and include a return label in the box. Pack the old jar in the box, stick the return label on the box and hand it off the USPS - all at no extra charge to you.
Origin
The laundry detergent is handmade in La Conner, Washington. The dryer balls are handmade in Maine.
