Best eco-friendly deals at Amazon's spring sale: Low-waste kitchen, bathroom, and spring cleaning swaps
Table of Contents
There's always a cloud of wastefulness and overconsumption hovering over any major Amazon sale event — the spike in orders inherently leads to a spike in trashed packaging or old items ditched for the incoming purchases. With the Amazon Big Spring Sale taking place just a few weeks before Earth Day, it's a perfect time to get a little more conscientious of your Amazon hauls.
One way to take advantage of Amazon deals more responsibly is to strictly shop for items that you'd have to buy eventually anyway, like spring cleaning supplies or kitchen restocks. Instead of re-buying your emotional support Tide Pods or Charmin, why not try a cardboard envelope of dissolvable laundry sheets or bamboo toilet paper while it's discounted?
Amazon's spring sale is home to a ton of eco-friendly versions of items you already use. I'm tracking all of the best eco-friendly Amazon deals live through March 31, including several items that I actually use at home myself.

Ditch the plastic bottle of Dawn for dish soap that comes in a carton. Cleancult's dishwashing liquid eats away at grease and grime just the same, but uses all-natural ingredients to do it. I couldn't even tell you how many times I've repurchased the fresh rain scent — I can only describe it as smelling like spring when I was a kid, and I'd buy it in the lotion or body spray versions if they existed.

Why we like it
The Suri electric toothbrush is my all-time favorite sustainable self-care swap that I've found so far. It scrubs at stuck food and plaque with 33,000 sonic vibrations per minute, and leaves my teeth feeling noticeably cleaner than they did when I used a manual toothbrush (that was years ago at this point). I can personally confirm that Suri isn't exaggerating about the one-month battery life. It's especially clutch to not have to worry about a charger when you're on vacation.
When it's time for fresh bristles every three-ish months, brush heads can be sent back to Suri for recycling in a prepaid mailer that came with your toothbrush. (You keep your brush base.) Compare that to the billion plastic toothbrushes that are thrown away in the U.S. every year, most of which will take several hundred years to decompose.
Compared to the old version that I currently use and love, the Suri 2.0 now has a pressure sensor that warns if you're brushing too hard. Its redesigned travel case charges the toothbrush while it's inside and has a built-in battery-powered UV-C light that sanitizes the brush head in just one minute.
