March Tip

4 tips to Green Spring Clean:

1. Avoid toxic cleaners. There are many recipes on the internet for less toxic alternatives. Even when using a homemade cleaner – keep children and pets away and stay safe.
2. Cleaning closets, drawers, carport or garage? Donate all those unwanted items instead of throwing them away.
3. Trade in your paper towels for rags. Just wash them after use and they will be ready for the next time.
4. Keep electronics out of the landfill. Recycle items that don’t work, donate working items to charities.
