Charlie’s Soap Laundry Liquid: Which Size and Formula?

The Charlie’s Soap Fragrance Free Laundry Liquid is the classic 1 gallon jug and the easiest way to try the brand. The listing rates it at 160 loads, with one ounce per large load. “Concentrated” simply means you use a small amount compared with many everyday detergents, so a gallon lasts a long time.

Charlie’s Soap describes it as hypoallergenic, septic safe and safer for the environment. Two claims stand out for new users: it is said to remove residue left behind by your previous detergent, and the brand says you do not need fabric softener. The listing’s weight field reads “1 ounces”, which is clearly an error for a gallon of liquid, so ignore that number.

This is the size to buy if you are testing whether your family’s skin does better with a fragrance-free wash, or giving it as a practical gift to new parents. Once you know you like it, the bigger refill makes more sense.

The Charlie’s Soap Laundry Liquid Refill is the 5 gallon option, holding 640 fl oz and rated for 800 loads. The listing weight is 40 pounds, which is a real consideration if you carry it up stairs to a laundry room.

The description calls the detergent biodegradable, environmentally safe and hypoallergenic. It does not say “fragrance free” in so many words, and some specification fields look off, such as package dimensions far too small for 5 gallons and an age recommendation of 20 and up. The listing does not specify whether a pour spout or pump comes with it.

This refill suits large families, busy households doing daily loads, or anyone who wants to refill a smaller bottle over and over. If a 40 pound container sounds unwieldy, the refill kit below is easier to handle.

The Charlie’s Soap Laundry Liquid Detergent kit pairs a full gallon refill jug with a reusable 32oz dispensing bottle. The idea is simple: keep the big jug in a cupboard and use the lighter bottle at the washer, so you are not wrestling a gallon every time you dose a load.

The listing says it is fragrance free with no added dyes, and gives 210 total loads. It repeats the brand’s claim that the concentrated formula helps remove residues left by many traditional detergents. The listing does not explain exactly how the 210 loads split between the jug and the bottle, so treat that as a combined figure.

This kit is ideal for first-time buyers, apartment dwellers and anyone who finds pouring from a gallon jug messy. It also makes a thoughtful housewarming gift since it arrives ready to use.

The Charlie’s Soap Laundry Liquid combo pairs 100 loads of the liquid with Charlie’s Soap Oxygen Powered Bleach Powder. Oxygen bleach is different from chlorine bleach: the listing says it is made from washing soda and hydrogen peroxide, which whitens whites and tackles stains and odors without the fabric damage chlorine can cause.

As little as two tablespoons per load is recommended, and the bleach is described as color safe and septic safe, though you should still follow garment care labels. The listing does not specify the size of the bleach container or how many loads it covers.

Pick this bundle if you wash a lot of white socks, towels or baby clothes that tend to go gray. If you only need detergent, the 1 gallon jug gives more liquid loads. For comparison with other oxygen-boosted liquids, our oxygen-boosted liquid detergent guide covers that style of product.

The Charlie’s Soap Laundry Powder is a fragrance-free powder in a 1.3 pound pack rated for 50 loads. Powder can be handy if you prefer scooping to pouring, or if you want something small for a dorm, camper or travel bag.

The listing gives very little detail beyond the load count and weight. It does not specify dosing per load, whether the powder suits high-efficiency machines, or any hypoallergenic or septic claims for this version, so check the package once it arrives.

This is a good low-commitment choice for a single person or a small household. Larger families will run through 50 loads quickly and are better served by one of the liquids.

The Charlie’s Soap Laundry Pre-Spray is a 32 fl oz stain remover. “Pretreat” means you spray it on a stain before the item goes into the washer, giving it a head start on grass, food or other marks.

The listing describes it as a natural laundry pretreat and stain remover but does not list ingredients, how long to leave it on, or which fabrics to avoid. It is not a detergent, so you still need one of the washes above.

It suits parents of toddlers, sports families and anyone who deals with spills often. Pair it with the fragrance-free liquid for a complete, low-scent laundry routine.
