Cleansing Your Home | Hawthorne, Portland

Cleansing Your Home Of Toxins

Hawthorne Neighboorhood, Portland

Portland has a reputation for being green, but many of us are cleaning with decidedly un-green, toxic chemicals. 
So, how do you cleanse your home and your life of toxic cleaning products?

In Portland, you can dispose of toxins at the Metro Center Transfer, located at 6161 NW 61st.
Alternately, between the months of March and November, the city organizes neighborhood collection events, to help you clean up without having to go all the way to the Transfer Station. 

So, once you get rid of the toxic cleaning products in your home, how do you clean?

Well, you could call Grit...

In the meantime, Metro has provided a number of recipes for safer cleaning products you can make at home!

Can Toxic Be Clean?

Grit Elite Force- a Non-Toxic Clean

What's the point of a house or business that LOOKS clean if it's toxic?
Here at Grit, we're well aware of the toxins packed into many of the cleaning products you buy at the local store.
That's why we make most of the products we use in your home ourselves.
We know, what's lost in leaving out triclosan or phthalates can usually be made up with a little elbow grease.

So, if you want a clean house, that won't make you sick, give us a call.
