I was thrilled when the team from Blueland reached out to me and asked me to try and review their zero-waste cleaning products. I’m always trying to find eco-friendly products that REALLY work and I’m a big fan of refillable packaging where you buy it once and refill it forever.
Blueland’s a revelation in the world of eco-friendly cleaning products. As someone who has always been conscious of the environmental impact of household cleaning, I was excited to try out this innovative bundle of cleaning solutions. Blueland not only met but surpassed my expectations for non-toxic, sustainable cleaning products.

My Favorite Blueland Products
The Clean Essentials Kit: The perfect starter kit including Hand Soap, Multi-Surface Cleaner, Bathroom Cleaner, and Glass + Mirror Cleaner. You get the refillable bottles and one cleaning tablet for each.
Dishwasher Starter Set: Not your average dishwasher detergent – Blueland tablets have all of the power without any of the plastic. Unlike conventional detergent pods that come wrapped in plastic, our dry-form tablets cut grease, grime, and lift food stains for a sparkling clean without dissolving plastic film onto your dishes.
Toilet Bowl Cleaner: I bought the refill tablets and keep them in their original packaging. I didn’t need a separate container. Just drop one in the toilet and let it do its magic.
National Park Hand Soap Collection: Includes one forever bottle and four refills in Glacier (airy & crisp), Joshua Tree (sweet & earthy), Sequoia (woodsy & fresh), and Zion (musky & warm)
Packaging: Blueland’s commitment to sustainability shines through in their packaging. The products arrive in a compact, minimalist box, reducing waste from excessive packaging. The refillable bottles and dissolvable cleaning tablets are a game-changer for reducing plastic waste and promoting reusability.
Easy Of Use: One of the things I loved about Blueland was its simplicity. With the reusable bottles and the cleaning tablets, all you need to do is drop a tablet into the bottle, fill it with warm water, and you’re ready to clean. It’s effortless and eliminates the need for buying new bottles every time you run out of cleaner. The tablets dissolve quickly, leaving you with an effective cleaning solution.
Effectiveness: Blueland doesn’t compromise on cleaning power. Their products tackle grime, grease, and stains effectively, leaving surfaces sparkling clean and fresh. From the multi-surface cleaner to the bathroom cleaner, each product in the suite does its job admirably without relying on harsh chemicals. The all purpose and bathroom cleaners were stellar. I also tried (and liked) the dishwasher tablets and I’m obsessed with the beautiful heavy glass hand soap dispenser.
Packaging: Blueland’s commitment to sustainability shines through in their packaging. The products arrive in a compact, minimalist box, reducing waste from excessive packaging. Inside, the products are elegantly presented in reusable, sturdy containers. The inclusion of refillable bottles and dissolvable cleaning tablets is a game-changer for reducing plastic waste and promoting reusability.
Scent Options: Blueland offers a limited but pleasant range of scents. The lavender eucalyptus scent in the bathroom cleaner is soothing and refreshing, while the citrus grove scent in the glass and mirror cleaner is invigorating. And they just released a slate of five new scents for their hand soap based on National Parks.
Price: While the initial purchase is slightly more expensive than traditional cleaning products, the long-term cost savings are evident. With the refill tablets, you get more bang for your buck, making Blueland’s Clean Suite an economically wise choice in the long run.
Environmental Impact: Blueland is a champion in sustainability. By reusing bottles and reducing single-use plastic, you’re directly contributing to a cleaner planet. Additionally, Blueland’s commitment to carbon neutrality and their transparent reporting on their environmental impact is commendable.
Blueland Return Policy: Blueland’s generous return policy makes trying their products risk free. I hope you love your Blueland products – but if for some reason that’s not the case, they offer free returns on domestic (USA) orders within a 100 day window after they’re shipped.
