Green Cleaning Services

Seattle Green Cleaner specializes in quality service, environmentally friendly values, and your peace of mind. Every green cleaning service provided by Seattle Green Cleaner is a deep cleaning! We clean each room from top to bottom, starting with cob webs and ending with baseboards and floors. Most cleaning companies only do a deep cleaning at the first appointment and then offer "maintenance cleanings". Seattle Green Cleaner is a white-glove cleaning company. It's true, you really do get what you pay for!

CLEANERS WILL NOT REMOVE THEIR SHOES

As a Washington State employer who provides L&I insurance, we won’t allow cleaners to remove their shoes during cleaning.
Since we clean our way out of every room, we aren't leaving anything nasty behind.
Since we’re an environmentally responsible cleaning company, we don’t use or purchase anything disposable (i.e., disposable booties).
We ask those customers who don't want shoes worn in their home to provide shoe covers/booties for cleaners.
They MUST have traction on the bottom to prevent slips and falls and to comply with Workman's Comp standards.
Washable Shoe Covers – Reusable booties instead of disposable shoe covers.
