All-Purpose Cleaning Concentrate (Grapefruit + Lemon)

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.
