A fair point. But larger containers would be a good option for those that can.

Instead, I just buy 10x 5L containers when they’re on sale. A big waste of plastic.

Wouldn't be a waste if you could return the containers and the design does not change often.

Barring that, plastic foil is more friendly. Buy a refill if available.

You can buy powdered detergent in a cardboard box.

Not recommended for High Efficiency washers.

I’m not sure if it’s just a scam to sell me liquid detergent tho.
