Started in 2003, we now clean over 100 homes in the Columbia, Missouri area.
Green cleaning, which started as a small movement, has become incredibly popular. Today most major cleaning product manufacturers are getting in on the game, marketing non-toxic cleaners in most grocery stores and discount chains.
Many house cleaners are not, in fact, large companies. Many are small businesses or individual entreprenuers who clean from a few homes a month to several a day. Casa Bonita House Cleaning LLC is dedicated to providing assistance and information to anyone interested in improving the health of the homes they clean, as well as the health of their employees, through green cleaning. With this in mind, we now offer recommended products for sale, resources for operating a green cleaning business, and helpful tips and techniques for green cleaning.
Natural products often cost more than synthesized ingredients. This accounts for some of the price difference we commonly see between green cleaning products and their more toxic counterparts. This cost difference, when seen by many in the competitive janitorial industry, immediately causes them to discount the idea of switching to healthier alternatives. In addition, stronger cleaners can sometimes do the job faster than more benign cleaning agents. Since this causes cleaners to spend more time cleaning, labor costs increase, again reducing the probability that many commercial cleaners would be willing to make the change.
Of course, if we could think long term, we would be better able to gauge the true costs of cleaning with harsh products. I know a woman who works for a cleaning company where they enter the bathrooms, spray them down with some toxic scum reducer, and then leave the room for 10 minutes while it works. She says the cleaner makes her nose bleed when she uses it. How much of that cleaning agent remains as indoor air pollution in the home after the cleaning crew leaves? How harmful is the long-term use these products to the employees of these cleaning companies?
