Zero Ick. Zero Guilt.
"The best!"
These are the best! I love cleaning with them, and best of all, they don’t have that disgusting, stale smell that all of my other sponges do. I love how the backside of the sponge can scrape the yuckies off of my pots and pans! So happy with my monthly subscription :)

"No more icky sponges"
Love my sponge! Does a great job as a scrubber also! When it gets dirty, I can just throw it away! No more icky sponges.

About
what we're all about
a new kind of clean
It’s just a sponge, some might say.
​
A little tool that sits in the heart of our homes, cleans the dishes we eat from, wipes our counters, scrubs our tubs.
That's a big, dirty job for just one sponge. So why are we using it again and again? Why are we keeping it around until it smells? Why aren't we cleaning with something that's... clean?
We dreamed of a new kind of clean. Of a world where the dirty, stinky sponge is something you only read about in history books. Where starting each morning with a fresh, new sponge is common, expected, and dare we say... looked forward to! The tiniest luxury amid those mundane chores.
​
So, in the name of every nose that's ever been on the wrong side of a ripe sponge whiff, we made Scrub & Throw. And, we're so excited to share it with you.
FAQ
the not-so-dirty details
-
Why clean with a new scrub sponge every day?Research has shown that kitchen sponges may contain more active bacteria than anywhere else in the house, including the toilet! Research has also shown that sponges may contain pathogenic bacteria, like E. coli and salmonella, that can lead to disease. Not to mention, who wants to clean with a dirty, old sponge! Scrub & Throw's 1 Day Scrub Sponges are new and clean, every day.
-
Why clean with a zero-waste scrub sponge?Short answer. Because the earth is awesome. ​ Long answer. Because most other scrub sponges, even many that claim to be environmentally friendly, are pesticide-soaked, made with oil, release microplastics right down your kitchen drain into the ocean, and fill our landfills with nylon, polyester, foam and many more man-made waste that will remain there forever. ​ Scrub & Throw scrub sponges do the same job as your traditional scrub sponge and create zero waste. They biodegrade in about 30 days, are made entirely of loofah (which is a vegetable), require zero oil for production, are a renewable resource, contain zero plastics, glues, dyes, pesticides, detergents, antimicrobials, or chemicals of any kinds. And, they're vegan-- did you know that some natural sponges are made from once-living sea creatures?!? Scrub and Throw scrub sponges deliver guilt-free scrubbing at its finest.
