What is "green cleaning"?

There are many green cleaning products out there. Some are better than others. But they all have one thing in common: a desire to keep the environment, and your home, safe. Major brands like Method, Mrs. Meyers and Seventh Generation make up a majority of the market. We use Seventh Generation to clean your home or office!

Fun Fact:

  • If you need a disinfecting cleaner that ALSO is safe for your home, look for products that have citric acid. It’s safe and cleans great!

What is “green cleaning”?

For some people, this means a completely natural product base cleaning. Think baking soda or vinegar. For many, this means using products that are specifically formulated to be both environmentally friendly but also to deliver a super cleaning punch much like products that contain ammonia or other dangerous chemicals.

The popularity of Green Cleaning solutions can be tied to political or environmental causes for sure. With the way the world is currently, it only makes sense to do our part to avoid putting any more toxic chemicals into the atmosphere. That being said, there is something practical about using products that are “green”.

If you have young children or pets, then green cleaning is for you. A majority of our clients do have small creatures which may be susceptible to the toxins in over the counter typical cleaning products. Because we use green cleaning products, these possibly dangerous possibilities are mitigated. So whether your reasoning is political, environmental, or just to keep your family and pets safe, green cleaning is probably for you!

What green cleaning products do you use?

We use Seventh Generation brand products in all the homes and offices we clean. Seventh Generation is a safe, green cleaning company that makes the highest quality green cleaning products. You may see them on the shelves of your local grocery store even!

What this means is we pay a little bit more for a higher quality product. Many local green cleaning companies use their own solutions which are unproven and frankly, not very good. Many don’t even have cleaning agents in them. We spend a lot more money on products per year, but for us, it makes sense. We are still here to clean, even if we are doing it safely!
