Reusable paper towels are a multi-use alternative to paper towels, convenient for mopping up spills and cleaning surfaces. Made from durable materials, there’s no need to toss the towel in the trash can once you've used it. Simply rinse it out or run it through the dishwasher or washing machine, and it'll be as good as new, ready for the next time you need to tackle a spot of grime.


Reusable paper towels can be used more frequently than their disposable counterparts, and many are compostable. These handy cleaning cloths are so useful you may not want to switch back to conventional paper towels. Consider getting a dispenser just for your reusable paper towels—because you'll probably become a loyal fan.

Depending on the type of reusable paper towel you choose, they can last for years. Cloth reusable paper towels can be machine washed again and again, and one reusable paper towel made from a mix of cotton and wood pulp cellulose, most commonly known as Swedish dishcloths, can do the job of many rolls of traditional paper towels. Once Swedish-style dishcloths begin to show wear, you can throw them in the recycling bin or compost. Switching to reusables reduces your impact on the planet and saves a lot of trees. Plus, you're less likely to run out of paper towels just when you need one because the roll will last longer.

Most reusable paper towels come from natural sources like wood, cotton, and bamboo, making them an environmentally friendly option for keeping counters and tabletops clean.


  • Wood pulp-based reusables feel the most similar to conventional paper towels, but you'll be amazed at how long these practical little cleaning helpers last.
  • Cotton-based reusable paper towels feel typically like a cross between paper and fabric. They are durable, machine washable, and you can wipe and rinse, then wipe again, and your paper towel still feels like new.
  • Reusable bamboo paper towels come from one of the most sustainable materials on the planet. Tough and long-lasting, switching to bamboo can save a lot of trees as bamboo regenerates in three to four months versus decades of growth time for most trees.
