Thanksgiving is coming and it’s bringing family and friends, trademark dishes, and favorite holiday traditions. For those on the prep and cleanup squad, Thanksgiving also brings a boatload of work. In anticipation of guests from near and far, many scrub the house from top-to-bottom. Then, after the main event is over, returning the kitchen and dining room to working order takes seemingly endless elbow grease. Amidst all this hullabaloo, many feel their environmental goals start to slip. As your to-do list starts stacking up, an eco-friendly Thanksgiving can seem like a hopeless case.
That’s where Charlie Soap comes in. With a little help from Charlie’s, you can enjoy a clean, green eco-friendly Thanksgiving. Let’s talk about managing environmentally-safe cleaning this holiday both before and after the main event.
Before: Household Prep
If you’re hosting Thanksgiving this year, you know that there’s a lot to get ready before your guests begin to arrive. Let’s get into the eco-friendly cleaning solutions you’ll need for your pre-Thanksgiving cleaning.
Kitchen & Bathroom
The kitchen and the bathroom often need the most consistent upkeep. With lots of traffic—not to mention the potential for bacteria and germs—these areas need some serious cleaning power to maximize usability during the holidays.
Our secret to keeping it green and sparkly clean? Charlie Soap Kitchen & Bath Household Cleaner. Since it’s Charlie’s, it’s designed with the earth in mind. That means no caustic chemicals, perfumes, or harmful additives. Instead, our products are chock-full of eco-friendly cleaning power to make your kitchen and bathroom sparkle like new
Our Kitchen & Bath Household Cleaner is also multipurpose. With only one product, you can tackle showers, toilets, and sinks, as well as backsplashes, counters, ovens, fridges, and more. Just spray the cleaner on the surface. Allow it to sit for a few minutes (or longer for tough messes), and then wipe it away with the cleaning rag for spotless kitchens and bathrooms.
Household Exterior
For many, Thanksgiving is also an opportunity to spiffy up the exterior of the home. That could simply mean polishing up the outside windows, or it could require a full power wash spray down to get it looking like new.
No matter what’s on your outdoor cleaning list this Thanksgiving, Charlie’s has what you need. Together, our Indoor & Outdoor Surface Cleaner and our 1001+ Degreaser help you tackle messes big and small. For windows, walls, driveways, and patio furniture, give our Indoor & Outdoor cleaner a go. For heavy duty residue, gutters, and siding, supplement with our tough-as-nails 1001 Degreaser. Simply dilute the appropriate cleaner according to the instructions provided on the back, and watch Charlie’s powerful formula tear through dirt and grime to give you a deep green clean.
After: Cleanup and Recovery
When the trademark meal has come and gone, it’s time to dive into cleanup. In particular, Thanksgiving makes for food-related messes like:
Laundry, Cloth Napkins, & Tablecloths
Unsurprisingly, lots of people who go green stick with cloth, napkins and tablecloths. By switching out one-use paper and plastic products, you’re able to reduce waste and boost the sustainability of your Thanksgiving. There is one glaring downside: the laundry. Thanksgiving dinner is notorious for greasy foods that lead to tricky, long-lasting stains. Combined with fancy dress shirts and blouses, you may be facing down a daunting laundry day
Not with Charlie’s Soap! Charlie’s offers eco-friendly detergent and stain solutions that come with serious cleaning power. Our formulas are free or fragrances, dyes, optical brighteners, and other harmful additives that could hurt you, your water, and the planet. For green and clean laundry, choose from our laundry powder, liquid detergent or laundry packets. If you’re facing down tough stains add a scoop of our color-safe, non-chlorine oxygen bleach, or use our pre-treatment spray to target specific areas. Then, send it through the wash according to garment care instructions. Afterwards, allow the material to air-dry completely to ensure that the stain has been lifted, and enjoy the ease of green cleaning with Charlie’s Soap.
Tackle Grease
One of the biggest challenges of Thanksgiving is the kitchen cleanup. The immense amounts of grease from the turkey and the mashed potatoes (not to mention all of the other butter-full sides) can turn your kitchen into an oily disaster zone by the time Thanksgiving dinner draws to a close.
That’s why Charlie’s is ready with grease-fighting natural cleaners. Our Kitchen & Bath Household Cleaner can be used to break through even Thanksgiving levels of greasy residue. Just spray, wipe, and take a second to relax during your Thanksgiving weekend.
