Green Tips:: Dishes are Clean.

You can make cleaning your dishes more Earth friendly by following these simple green tips.

* Run only a full load of dishes through the dishwasher.
* Use a plant based biodegradable dish washing detergent. {My fave is Biokleen}
* Use the appropriate dish washing setting.
* Scrap your plates, instead of rinsing them before placing them in the dish washer.
* Run the dishwasher at night and let them air dry. {They will be dry by morning.}

{If possible, run your major appliances at night between 12 a.m. - 4 a. m. You can do this by setting your dishwasher for delay start. Also, you save more energy when you run the appliances during off peak hours.}

How do you green your dish washing?
What is your favorite dish washing detergent?

  1. Great tips!
    We always put our dishwasher on "delay start" at night, so it runs after 12:00am

    Happy Sunday to you!
