Green Cleaning Service - Tips?

Submitted by ozmasun on Thu, Jun. 19, 2008

I was wondering if anybody had any tips on starting a green cleaning service using only seventh generation and natural cleaners. I'm not looking for anything in particular, anything is appreciated!

I used a service called "The Maids"

I used a service called "The Maids," which I believe is in different states, for several months before coming across Seventh Generation products. The Maids used traditional, regular household cleaners. I asked them to start using the Seventh Generation products after I'd tried them myself and loved them, and so I bought all the Seventh Generation products they would need and asked them to use them. They did, and were very cooperative and understanding; I have asthma, so I was trying to avoid cleaning myself. They did a good job overall.

To cut back on spending, I ended up going back to cleaning my place myself. Small things like cleaning using recyclable paper tower, which I prefer and other details, I can do myself and know at the end of the day how I've cleaned my place and really assess how well the products are working.

Green cleaning service

I use a service that uses green products;it was started by a cancer survivor. The service partners with the "Cleaning for a Reason Foundation" which provides a free or discounted for women with cancer or breathing problems. You might want to check with the foundation to see if they have any ideas.

Good luck
