Eco Friendly Cleaning
Green cleaning with plant-based, biodegradable products, safe for kids and pets.
What Makes It Green
A clean home shouldn’t come with a chemical headache. Our eco-friendly cleaning option uses non-toxic, biodegradable products that are safe for kids, pets, and anyone with sensitivities, without giving up the professional standard our clients expect from a deep clean.

What Does Eco Friendly Cleaning Mean at Cleaning Hive?
Green cleaning at Cleaning Hive is a product decision, not a marketing badge. Our teams clean your home with plant-based, biodegradable products. We leave out bleach, ammonia, aerosols and heavy synthetic fragrances on every green booking. If you want proof of a specific third-party label such as EcoLogo or Green Seal on the products used in your home, ask before the visit and we will confirm exactly what is in the bottle.
The checklist does not change: same rooms, same standard, same trained team. What changes is what we spray, wipe and mop with. Read our guide to eco friendly cleaning products to see how they are used in practice.
What Changes When You Book Green Cleaning?
Three things change when you tick the green option:
- Products swap. Your cleaner uses the plant-based line for the whole visit. It is available as the $100 Green Products Only add-on on any booking.
- Fragrance drops. Low-scent or no added fragrance, which matters for babies, pets and sensitive households.
- Honest limits. Extreme build-up sometimes needs a standard product to avoid scratching surfaces. We flag it before using anything stronger, never silently.
You can also hand us your own preferred products and we will use them.
Health Benefits for Kids, Pets and Allergy Households
Little kids play on floors then put hands in mouths. Pets walk across counters-height surfaces and lick paws. Allergy and asthma households feel synthetic fragrances for hours after a clean. Plant-based products remove that variable from your home.
We will not pretend green cleaning cures allergies or asthma; it does not. It removes one irritant source, which many families find worth it on its own. More depth here: green cleaning for a healthier home.
Do Green Products Clean as Well as Standard Ones?
For everyday grime: yes. Dishes, counters, bathrooms, floors and most touchpoints come out just as clean with plant-based chemistry. Where standard products still win is heavy-duty jobs like baked-on oven carbon or years of soap scum. We say so up front rather than selling you a product that under-delivers on extreme jobs.
Green Cleaning on a Recurring Plan
Most green households book recurring. Weekly or bi-weekly plans save 15% per visit and every 3 or 4 weeks saves 10%. Your regular cleaner learns where the green products live, which surfaces hate vinegar and where your cat hides, so each visit gets smoother.
See the full breakdown on the pricing page or read how often to book house cleaning if you are deciding on frequency.
What We Leave Out of Your Home, and Why
Our green line excludes the usual suspects: bleach, ammonia, aerosol sprays and heavy synthetic fragrances. Not because those products are useless, but because safer alternatives exist for the same everyday jobs. For the science behind that trade-off, see our guide on deep-cleaning appliances safely.

Frequently Asked Questions
Green products cost a little more, so there’s a small surcharge on the visit, we’ll show it clearly at booking.
