It’s important to clean your sustainable totes because they can collect a lot of dust and dirt. Here are the best ways to clean them: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap or detergent. Let dry in the sun. If you want to wash it, use a machine on a gentle cycle and line drying is best for the longevity of the fabric. You can also use warm water from the tap (no bleach!) and put it on delicate settings or hand-wash if you prefer—just be sure not to wring out excess water so as not to damage the bag or its contents!
