Built on Values, Powered by People

At Seattle Green Earth Cleaning…

…we believe we all have a role to play in building a better world— whether we’re individuals, a small local business, or a global corporation. We believe every company should add value to its community and serve the greater good. That’s the kind of business we choose to support—and strive to be.

From day one, we knew our model had to center on respect—for people and for the planet. That’s why we proudly call ourselves The Planet-Friendly, People-Friendly Cleaning Company.

Planet-Friendly

(environmentally responsible)

You can rest assured that all of our cleaning products are environmentally-friendly and safe for you, your children, your pets… your entire family!

This means they are:

  • Plant-derived
  • Non-toxic
  • Biodegradable
  • Bleach-free
  • Phosphate-free
  • Ammonia-free
  • Not tested on animals
  • Safe around children and pets
  • Made in the USA

We believe sustainability should be woven into every detail—even the tools we clean with.

Further, whenever possible, our cleaning tools (think broom, bag, spray bottles, mop, etc.) are made from recycled materials and are recyclable themselves, so they are better for the environment than traditional tools. We even special-order spray bottles made from recycled plastic. Inconvenient – yes. The right thing to do – yes!

Of course, we also don’t use one-time-use products, such as paper towels. We only use reusable, washable and biodegradable sponges and clothes. And all our products come in recyclable packaging and are concentrated for lighter shipping.

And, finally, all our vacuums have HEPA filters, which actually help filter and clean the air in your home, catching small particles of dust and debris as we vacuum.

People-Friendly

(socially responsible)

We are proud to be one of the first cleaning companies who offered their team members a meaningful employment package, and we continue to lead the way in the industry ensuring we have the best and well-cared for Team Members.

  • All the people who work for us are US citizens or eligible to work in the US.

  • All the people who work for us are W-2 employees, not independent contractors. This means all our employees are covered under our business license, bonding and insurance and receive the regular benefits of W-2 employment status, including Medicare, Social Security, unemployment benefits, L&I protection, etc.

    NOTE: Why does this matter to you? If the cleaners you hire are independent contractors, they are not covered by the company’s liability insurance (this means you are at risk) and they do not have unemployment insurance. The independent cleaner is responsible to secure their own business license, bonding (to cover theft or damage) and insurance, not to mention all their own cleaning products and supplies.

  •  All of our employees receive a comprehensive benefits package (many items below are nearly unheard of in the industry, and in many small businesses around the us).

  •  A generous living wage, premium for the industry.

  • 3-5 weeks of paid time off depending on years of service.

  • Holiday pay (7 holidays/year)

  • A GOLD health insurance plan that covers reproductive and gender-affirming care and dental.

  • Company reimbursements for all massage/chiropractor/acupuncture and mental health appointments each year (imagine a world where everyone could and would take care of their physical and mental health!).

  • Mileage reimbursement.

  • Bonuses based on your feedback and spot-checked performance.

  • And a matching 401K retirement plan.

  • We are committed to our local community and offer a 15% discount to clients for all appointments if they leave out a food bank donation. We end up taking over 300-500 pounds of food to the food bank each week and over $1,500 is donated by clients each month!

  • To make re-use and recycling as easy as possible for all our clients, we offer a complimentary donation and recycling service.

  • Most of our cleaning products and tools are made in the USA, so we’re supporting local jobs and companies!

Not only do we believe this is the RIGHT way to do business, we believe this all just MAKES SENSE… for our planet, our team members, our clients and our business. It’s really a win-win-win-win for all of us!

At Seattle Green Earth Cleaning, we believe business should be a force for good. That’s why our model is built around care—care for our clients, our team, our planet, and our community.

We don’t just clean homes; we create good jobs, minimize our environmental footprint, and invest in the wellbeing of those around us. Our team earns some of the highest wages in the industry, with benefits that include health insurance, PTO, 401K matching, wellness bonuses, and even oil change and medical reimbursements—because when we care for our team, they can show up with pride and purpose.

We clean with intention, using non-toxic, fragrance-free products that are safe for people, pets, and the planet. We reduce waste, refill wherever we can, and schedule thoughtfully to limit our carbon footprint. Sustainability isn’t a selling point—it’s how we operate.

And we’re deeply rooted in community. From supporting families coming out of crisis to partnering with local organizations that fight food insecurity and promote environmental justice, giving back is part of who we are. Every scrub, sweep, and shine is part of something bigger: a cleaner, more compassionate world.
