When I first started this business, I was coming from a custodial job at my local high school. I really loved the setup I had with my cart and my garbage can and all the tools and rags I used there. I knew I wanted a very portable version of the same thing as I cleaned houses. I like to provide my cleaning materials. For one thing, I like to know that I have what I need for almost any situation, second, I think people appreciate knowing they don't have to keep track of their cleaning supplies and when they need refilling. The first thing I purchased and was this: (best decision ever!)
This is an extra large cleaning caddy. Even if you have zero intention of starting your own cleaning business, you need this bad boy in your life. I'll be doing a post soon explaining how to clean your house like a cleaning lady. Having this job has helped me so much in cleaning my own house. Using a cleaning caddy is one of my top helps!
I also use two of these:
I use one bucket for my clean, folded rags and another for my dirty rags. I like to provide my cleaning materials. For one thing, I like to know that I have what I need for almost any situation, second, I think people appreciate knowing they don't have to keep track of their cleaning supplies and when they need refilling. I also like to use my own cleaning rags because then I can have exactly what I want and need on hand. These rags are by far my very favorites! They're the perfect amount of fluffy and thin, so they can be used for everything! I have so many of these and I LOVE them!
Finally, these are my glass cleaning rags. They are so wonderful and because they can just be used with water, I don't have to carry glass cleaner on my caddy. One less products is so helpful! I use the green rag to wipe down the glass or mirror and the blue to dry. If the glass is especially dirty, I might add a drop of dawn soap to my wet, green rag, but that's it. Super simple!
Well, there you have it, here are my basic cleaning supplies that I use every single time I clean. I'll do another post with the cleaners that I love most and how I use them, probably only a few at a time, since there's so many. As you can see, these products would be just as useful for cleaning your own home, as for as cleaning business, like mine.
